Will have the really slow acceleration like the FGV train

Wait, even better! Why not use an SD400 or CAF's Port Authority LRV? High and low platform boarding.

Or even the Breda San Francisco LRV2/3 or the Siemens S200SF, with their movable steps, they can serve high or low platforms with all doors. I don't think there's a model of them kicking around online, but they would serve well here. I do happen to know all the tech stuff for them if needed :)

You'll be surprised but there are some models of the Breda LRVs around somewhere.

Wow I wouldn't have guessed that! Thing is though, no model would be able to accurately recreate the mess of mechanical and weight issues that real Bredas have.

I wish there was 3d models of the P865/P2020. I know a guy who's been working on them along with the P2000 but they've been on Mars. I don't know if they will return with updates but I'd love to see some LA Metro Rail rolling stock for the simulator with the horn_2 botton functional.
Photo from them btw.

The FGV DMU is a train from the 60's, do you expect a train from the 60's a fast acceleration? The 3700 series is more like a tram train and newer construction, plus electric, so just by common sense...

The 2300 railcars were constructed between 1966 and 1974 for the FEVE network. They were all built as single car units, but they were later rebuilt to become two-car units in the 1980s. The units used on Alicante to Denia FGV line did not appear until 1987.

What's your point? :?:

I think 3700 series will have faster a acceleration than the FGV DMU, but I'm not entirely sure.
