Ilya, I see that second coach is slightly higher then first one. Is this just illusion, or they are of different types (with different bogies, I mean)?

E.Glorg, coaches are different types. PV40 the first one (ПВ40) and VP750 (ВП750). Since 2007 ambarsk Machine-Building Plant manufactures passenger cars VP750 in limited batches, which are the development of the design of the PV40 car with an increased mass of up to 12 tons, modern saloon performance and a slightly increased minimum radius of the passable curve. The main difference of VP750 is the use of carts, unified with diesel locomotives. Because of this, the overall height of the car is much larger than that of the PV40.
