ER2 Electric train (WMC Models)

Hello everyone!



My first model was published in the Journal of WMC.



Electric train ER2.



Beginning in 1962 the Railroad Machinery Plants of Riga and Kalinin started to release ER2 electric trainsets instead of ER1s. ER2 cars have footboards for low platforms, and aprons for high platforms, installed in the train yards. The presence of footboards caused body to be redesigned. The same time if compared with ER1 cars, front parts, edge walls, car end frames, and door places. The car improvement project was carried out by constructors from the Railroad Machinery Plants of Riga.



ER2-1348, the last ER2 electric trainset was built in September 1984. Er2 electric trainsets entered a lot of suburban districts, particularly in Moscow and Leningrad (St. Petersburg) Railway Networks. The long run of ER2 release, made these trains leading in serving suburban commuters. These trains became widespread in suburban, as well as local railroad traffic in 1960 - 1980 period.
