The trains feature automatic train control, air conditioning, emergency intercoms, wheelchair spaces and emergency braking.
Overhaul
In late 2013, Metro awarded a 60-month fixed price contract to ORX to overhaul the powered axle assemblies for the then twenty-three year old P865/P2020's.
P2020
The P2020, which was also produced by Nippon Sharyo for the LACMTA, is identical to the P865, except for the model number. A total of fifteen vehicles with that model number were delivered to Metro in 1994.
