Hi there, I would like to introduce you some of the content that is currently being made or exported to some simulators, I do hope someday for them to be in Metrosim too, thought they're more suburban trains rather than subway trains.
1.000 series from MA.CO.SA, these operated in the southern area of Valencia (Valencia Jesus Stn-Torrente-Villanueva de Castellon) and then in the northern lines, they were active from the early 50's up to the early 80's. They retired from the southern zone when the 3.600 series from FEVE started operating in this line. Consist was Mc+Tc
Babcock and Wilcox 3.600 series, with licensed bogies from Ganz-Mavag. These units were the ones to inaugurate the new electrification with 1.500V from Valencia's narrow gauge railways (before was 550V). They first runned in the southern line (Valencia Jesus-Torrente-Villanueva de Castellon) and with the underground link between the northen and southern lines, they runned from Villanueva de Castellon up to Lliria/Betera (lines number 1&2), retired from service in 2007, they ended their days doing commuter services between Torrent Ave-Paterna, Semi-Direct trains from Valencia Sud up to Lliria, and in some occasions, from Torrent up to Betera. Consist was Mc+T+Tc, only units number 4 & 2 survive (at least for now).
No, this is not Utrecht's sneltram , but instead the 3.700 series builted by MTM, CAF and ABB. These units operated from the lates 80's up to around 2008, from then and since the infamous Jesus accident occured with these units, an extension for new former Vossloh 4.300 series trains were ordered, condemning them to a premature retirement, almost 40 units were scrapped last month, surviving for now, only 5 from 40.
Hope you like!
