[EMU] S-IAF Sil7-37
A high-speed tilting EMU set designed for tackling curvy lines. 5 of this 7-car set are fitted with motors. The bogies are design to tilt 6° when taking curves. Thanks to the tilting mechanism, this trainset may achieve a maximum speed of 190km/h on upgraded tracks shared with local stopping trains, which only operate at 140km/h.
The sets also operate at 240km/h on the dedicated High-Speed Rail track. However, the angle of tilt is reduced to 3° due to safety measures.
