Description
The Siemens Nexas EMU (commonly known as Siemens trains) was constructed between 2002 and 2005 for the Melbourne rail network, and is currently operated by Metro Trains Melbourne throughout the city's northern, western and south-east suburbs. Despite being plagued by mechanical issues in their early years of service, the Siemens has been generally well-received by Melburnians thanks to its smooth and quiet ride.

The mods listed under Required Items are optional. Additive Shader adds the headlights and rear lights as seen in the screenshots, as well as the front destination board. The two Vehicle Effects mods add some realistic in-game sounds, including authentic Siemens arrival, departure, motor and horn sounds.

@Janni, it's a normal train in-game, but you can convert it to a metro using this mod: https://gtm.you1.cn/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=795514116

Will this asset work with metro trains or just normal trains? Cause I want to use this for my overground metro line!

@kjmci thanks! I've been working on the city for a couple of months now, so thought I'd have a crack at making some Melbourne assets which haven't been done yet.

This is really good work, and a spectacular effort for your first asset. I'm also impressed by the quality of the Melbourne build you have in your screenshots. I immediately recognised the corner of Spencer and Flinders streets, and the flying junctions at Richmond.

Looking forward to seeing what else you create!

@Damo cheers, I was thinking of doing the Volgren Optimus at some stage, might give it a go after I finish up with something I'm currently working on.

This is amazing! Thank you so much! Would you be able to make some PTV buses? There are a couple on the workshop but they are not actually found in Melbourne in real life.

@JenperTC thanks! Came out better than I'd hoped considering this was my first attempt at making an asset for the game.

This is very well done!
