NJT's a bit averse to having passenger doors in the cab area, especially for low platforms (may or may not be against current FRA crashworthiness regs), so the closest thing configuration-wise to the Arrows would be Montreal's MR-90s . . . of which you'd need a version that allows both high and low boarding at the end doors, has at least 100-mph certified MAS and also has automatic variable-tap transformers to allow on-the-fly operation between 11kV 25Hz and 25kV 60Hz overhead electrification systems. |
