This mod is a supplementary mod to the "China urban rail transit (metro) rolling stocks 2.0". Rolling stocks in this mod are less common and very unlikely to have new adoption within China in the foreseeable future, which is the main difference between the main mod and this supplementary mod.

Some of the rolling stocks included in this mod have their own standardization documents intended to pave the way to nationwide adoption. However such wide adoption never happened. Some standards conflict with each other, and some just never existed in real life. Rolling stocks that are indeed made into real life aren't strictly complying with the standards. Therefore, I only made a few rolling stocks that have higher demand from players and those with enough specification data.

If the speed limit of the train is not your desired limit, you may limit the max speed of the tracks it runs on.



China Type C1 metro train
In-game name: China Metro Type C1
Length per car: ~19m
Max Speed: 100km/h
Max passenger per car: ~220
Recommended train formation: 3-8 Cars
It is only adopted by Shanghai due to mis-designed urban planning in the early days. The passenger capacity is too limited for cities that need new metro lines, while still being too expensive for cities that can't afford to build metro.

China Type Lb metro train (Guangzhou)
In-game name: China Metro Type Lb
Length per car: ~18m
Max Speed: 100km/h
Max passenger per car: ~230
Recommended train formation: 4-6 Cars
Even though infrastructure for linear induction motor transportation systems costs more to make, it's able to go through tight curves and climb steep slopes to minimize the use of expensive private land, which might cost less overall to build than traditional rail transit. However, is just aren't that many winding streets that need tight curves to go through in mainland China. So it ends up in an awkward situation where it costs a lot more electricity to run than other types of metro trains, while it isn't really a lot cheaper to build either.
