Other examples includ one near Portland, OR,that connects with and extends the reach of the light rail line running west of the city, and New Jersey Transit's Trenton - Camden River Line.

I have to wonder if there is any market in North America for the Murom style of DPU (holy Duwag, Batman!) that Cuba is buying in large numbers.

The Stadler (Swiss) unit seems to be preferred.
