Urban rail transit in China often uses a highly standardized set of rolling stock across many cities. Most lines use type A and B trains, although there are variants and other models different uses.[1]
Type A
[edit]Type A trains are the highest-capacity trains. They are 22 by 3 meters, and have a capacity of 310 passengers with 5 doors per side. [1]
Type As
[edit]Type As trains are used exclusively in the mountainous city of Chongqing. They are 19 by 3 meters, and have a capacity of 254-266 passengers. They can climb a grade of 5% as opposed to 3.5% for most type A trains.[1]
These are used in lines 1 and 2 in Guangzhou. [2]: 13
Type Ah
[edit]Type As trains are used exclusively in Hangzhou. They are 19 by 3 meters, and have a capacity of 254 passengers.[1]
Urban Type A
[edit]Urban Type A trains are used on faster and more regional rail-like lines. They have similar dimensions to Type A trains.[1]
Type B
[edit]Type B trains are not as large. They are 19 by 2.8 meters, and have a capacity of 240 passengers with 4 doors per side.[1]
In Guangzhou, lines 3, 4, and 5 use this. Some of those are over capacity, because planners underestimated the demand for transit based on the low ridership of early, incomplete networks.[2]: 13
Urban Type B
[edit]Urban Type B trains are used on faster and more regional rail-like lines. They have similar dimensions to Type B trains.[1]
Type C
[edit]Type B trains are smaller. They are 18.9 by 2.6 meters, and, and have a capacity of 200-240 passengers.[1]
Monorail
[edit]The Chongqing Monorail uses CCD trains on .[3]
Other
[edit]Lb
[edit]Type Lb trains use linear induction motors.[1]. Guangzhou Line 6 uses this.[4]
Urban Type D
[edit]Urban Type D trains are 22 by 3.3 meters.[1] They are used on the fastest lines, like Guangzhou Line 18
