Draft:Sydney Metro Bombardier MOVIA E set

(This isn't real yet because this is a fan site)

The Sydney Metro Bombardier MOVIA E set could be the second class of electric multiple unit to be operated by Sydney Metro to operate on the M4 Northern Beaches & St George and M5 Victoria & South East lines. It could be the second automated passenger train in Australia as well as the first to get their power from a third rail instead of from overhead wires; third rails are considered cost-effective, more suitable in terms of installation, and much less affected by natural disasters.

The trains could feature mostly a stainless steel construction except for the doors, which could be aluminium. They could consist of 4 carriages in each set, with the middle two carriages motorised.

History
The E sets could be manufactured in Dandenong, Victoria by Canadian-German company Bombardier Transportation (since January 2021 merged with French company Alstom), who had separate contracts with Adelaide Metro to deliver the A-City 4000 class EMUs and FLEXITY Classic trams, G:link to deliver the FLEXITY 2 trams, Metro Trains Melbourne to deliver the CITYFLO 650 signalling system, Queensland Rail to deliver the New Generation RollingStock 700 series, V/Line to deliver the VLocity DMUs and Yarra Trams to deliver the FLEXITY Swift E-class trams. Along with Alstom itself, the company is well-known for building many metro rapid-transit trains used in countries within Europe and Asia.

Formations
Set numbers on E sets could be identified by the third letter and last two digits of the carriage numbers. The fleet could be numbered from E1 onward.

Carriage number formation on the E sets could be:

E1nnA - E1nnB - E2nnB - E2nnA

(The nn initials could represent the corresponding set number)
