Aerorail - Rolling Stock
The express car has
60 seats and is 11' wide, 60' long, and 12'6" high. An empty
vehicle weighs 60,000 pounds. Maximum passenger capacity is 160
people; 60 seated and 100 standing. The upper 30" of the
vehicle is separated from passengers by a firewall. Construction
is aircraft composite with composite transparent windows. The
space below the floor contains a ladder that can be lowered in
case an emergency evacuation is necessary. These vehicles are
ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant. Station Platform
height is level with vehicle height, which is difficult to obtain
with light rail systems.
