Description

Suburban EMU train, waiting for its time to leave the station.

ER2 is an aged-design EMU, which was first announced in 1960th, but still in use in many parts of former USSR.
It is using DC electric power (3kV), can house about 120 persons per cart, and can be (rarely :)) accelerated to 100-110 km/h.
Due to its suburban usage scenario, it is often drives at 60-70 km/h and makes stops at any village on its way.
Not very convenient for passengers, lacks air conditioner, often use wooden sits (rather tough), but it is common and familiar
in any remote place of a country. Those EMUs were produced in large numbers, therefore lots of spare parts still exist and
those trains are repaired again and again, making them one of the long-live objects on a local railways.

Those EMUs can also be seen here fav.me/d7frx52 and there fav.me/d7fiijq
