Spiffy looking cars! I thought they were going to have the FIND system though...

There's no need for them. These cars cant run anywhere else other than the 7

The R188's have CBTC... other than that, I'm not too sure.

Other than CBTC and related equipment, and also a slightly different cab layout, the cars are practically the same as the R142A.
