Probably none, the metro's of Amsterdam are actually a bit wider so they won't fit on existing lines in the simulator (well they will work as there is no physics simulation, but it will probably look wrong).

Re: Amsterdam M5
^^ which must mean 1 of 2 things
A- rijndam m4 is getting a massive new overhaul with wider tunnels (a lot of money for the company)
B- we are getting the m5 Amsterdam line

Re: Amsterdam M5
Indeed; during my first test with a platform edge (which I did in an early stage as I know the Amsterdam metro's are wider then Rotterdam metro's, on which the simulator is based) I did find out the edge of the carriages cut into the platform edges.
But as this train shouldn't require all new routes to be modified to be usable, I just did what every train manufacturer does; modify the vehicle design a bit to fit the target infrastructure.
The modifications;
As a matter of fact; the first two screenshots in this topic are without the modification, the 3rd one is with the modification. Would you know the difference if I hadn't told you?

The modifications;
- Removed a small black strip from the outside of the doors to get a few cm more clearance.
- Made the whole vehicle 2% narrower.

Update: passengerview positions have been installed, and the internal destination displays, linenumber displays, and (changeable) route diagrams;
@Polete06: not known yet. I do have some sound files, but I have not taken the time yet to see how usefull they are.
