Description
Vanilla Variant

Stadler KISS USA
The KISS160 is a double-decker regional train. It gets its name from the German for comfortable innovative speedy suburban train. As a regional train with a high passenger capacity, the KISS has been deployed between western Europe and the Ural Mountains since 2010 – and is set to take to the rails in the USA soon too.

Stadler designed a custom KISS trainset based on the requirements of Caltrain, which started their electrification program for their existing railroad corridor in Bay Area in 2016. KISS USA variant comes with larger mainframe, new wheelset, higher pantograph. KISS USA is also capable to reach up to 180kmph, unlike its European counterparts that are limited to 160kmph.

KISS is being manufactured in Stadler's Salt Lake Utah factory. Train sets originally featured 4 entry points for different platform standards, current operational sets had their high entry doors replaced with emergency exists, which to be retrofitted once high-speed rail reaches to USA.

2023 Remake
Original KISS model was made in 2018 and it was my first USA specific train asset. Since then my skills improved, quality standard changed and Railway 1 & 2 were released. With these in mind, I remade KISS USA from scratch with better references and blueprints that now exist, since the train was built and in service.

Since this is an update, pantograph is lowered to fit under vanilla wires, barely. Railway 2 variant will follow this update, to be published in couple of days.

Features
- KISS USA
- Contains 2 lead cars, power unit, intermediate coaches
- Animated articulations, first introduced to Cities Skylines back in 2018, with this train as a feature.
- 86 people per trailer.
- Directional headlights with Additive Shader

Texture and Material Share
- Entire train set share same texture set and materials;
- The final load on RAM should be around 7MB.

Information regarding Skyve:
- Skyve tagged this asset wrongly as broken. It doesnt have black LOD issue, the issue it refers to is fixed 20 days ago with this remake, and it belongs to 2018 version of the asset.

So ignore the warning.

2023 Update:

Caltrain KISS is remade from scratch. New asset features much more accurate topology and textures, it is modeled after the final train look and consist that is different that what it was shown 5 years ago, when original asset had been made.

I kept the name of the asset same, therefore update should be event-less.

It also has vanilla pantograph height, since old asset was made when Railway 1 & 2 wasnt even a thing.

Railway 2 version can be found here:

You sub, it spawns.

If you want to use it on regional spawning, you need Improved Public Transport or a similar mod, that gives you the ability edit your train lines and select custom trains.

As a matter in fact, I realized that I already explained it on the description.
