So here is one of the next major development projects that will be started in the first half of 2015: The Silverliner V EMU built by Rotem for SEPTA (also known as SEPTIC lol). For now, since the SLV exterior is currently non-existent, the M7 exterior will be used as a placeholder. This video showcases the unusually high rate of starting acceleration (for a commuter rail EMU) that the SLV is spec'd with: 3.0 mph/s from stall speed up to 30 mph. With jerk factored in, you will notice that it takes just about 12 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 30 mph. Compare this to the acceleration specified by the RFP issued by SEPTA when these cars were still in procurement: https://web.archive.org/web/20070927022208/http://www.septa.org/business/over25000/silverliner_v/SLV_TS_AUG_05_r0.pdf
