Why are EMUs canceled?
1 Answers
EMUs are not canceled. EMU: EMU, short for Electric Multiple Unit, refers to powered vehicles in rail transit systems, including two main categories: locomotives and powered cars. EMUs are equipped with driving wheels, while the corresponding vehicles without driving devices are called trailers. For a train to operate normally on the tracks, there must be EMUs to provide sufficient traction for the entire train, but it is not necessary to attach non-powered trailers. Types: EMUs are railway vehicles equipped with wheel-driving machinery, not just EMUs. Not only do high-speed trains have EMUs, but all types of train transportation, including conventional-speed EMUs, ordinary-speed trains, subway trains, light rail trains, monorail trains, and maglev trains, have EMUs.
