The Metro Cammell DMU comes as a single "bubblecar", with cabs on both ends, when bought. Place a second one in the train to make them single-ended.  A typical real-world consist would be two Metro Cammell DMUs with a standard passenger or mail car between them.

"Newfangled" DMUs made a big change to the railway scene from the mid 1950s. Replacing steam-hauled trains and older railbusses, their low running costs made many less-trafficked lines viable again, and their decent top speed allowed them to mix with traffic on the main line too.

[edit] Similar locomotives

The model in PJ1K is a Class 101, the first and best-known of the early DMUs, but it can stand for any of the first-generation units.
