AM5-M2 and AM4-M4

Passenger Rolling Stock and High-Speed Trainsets

The AM5-M2 and AM4-M4 are two series of Alstom Metropolis heavy rail rolling stock that operate on lines M2 and M4 of the Budapest Metro. Since 2009, 22 AM5-M2 sets have been constructed for use on Line M2 with delivery to be completed by 2013, and a further 22 AM4-M4 sets have been constructed since 2012 for use on Line M4 with delivery due to be completed by 2014. On 5 December 2016 an accident occurred on Metro Line M2 involving an AM5-M2 rolling stock, when an incoming train collided with a waiting train at the Pillangó utca metro station. This was the first serious accident in the history of the Budapest metro; it did not result in a fatality, but according to the prosecution a total of twenty-one people were injured, five of them seriously.
