 | | These 4-car units were dropped later as they put too high a load on the OHE power supply, and all 8-car rakes were converted to 9-car rakes by 1963. |
 | | On CR, a 3-coach unit is classified as 76, 70, or 72, where 76 is the leading motor coach, 70 is the motor coach with a pantograph, and 72 is the trailer coach. |
