Push Pull commuter train

Hi
I am interested in putting together a Commuter train system that works on the push pull method.
I recently watched a DVD that covered Metro`s Fox Lake line from Libertyville into Chicago`s Union Station. It was filmed from inside the cab commuter car on the left side with the operator on the right.

The cab commuter car was on one end while the other end was occupied with a Diesel Electric. (Push Pull setup).

In searching the DLS I found commuter Cab cars, but they are inoperable.

It would be nice if the cab cars would function similar to Diesels therefore allowing a train with a cab car on one end and Diesel on the other end.

Thank you for any input on this subject, and have a good day.

If you set the CMP Search parameter to Name - NYCTA you get more than 100 drivable subway cars, if that's what you want.

Richard,

Are you using TS2009 or above? If so there should be some already there. Check the MN content.
This is how I run my commuter trains, and how my local transit authority (MBTA) runs theirs.
