Stadler KISS - Caltrain (6Cars)

Vanilla Variant

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.

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.
