One coach is provided with two AC’s which will be capable of heating and cooling. The temperature inside the coach is controlled automatically in the passenger area and is fixed at 25 degree Celsius with 65% relative humidity at all times.
Artwork displaying ‘Rolling Stock Features’, mixed in acrylic sheets will also be displayed on the walls of the coach. These artworks will provide detailed information about the salient features of metro train coaches, a statement issued by metro rail.
A depiction of driving cabs, wherein citizens can visualize the interiors of the actual cab and its controls is another highlight of this model. Apart from this, an automatic self-opening/closing bi-parting sliding door will be there in this coach which will function exactly the same it does in real metro coaches.
