I know that all of WMATA's rolling stock, their door controls were designed and made by, if I'm not mistaken, by Westcode USA.
Also, I know that the entire Metr Car Fleet even starting with the 1974-77 built Rohr 1000s and of course all newer car classes thereafter were a WH DC traction system prior to rehab, then to WH AC except the CAF 5000s and Alstom 6000s and maybe the planned Kawasaki 7000s, and all Metro cars are using a Knorr/NYAB handle controller similar to the NYCT R110B, and MBTA Red Line 01800 car fleet as well as their Blue Line 0700s (they are GE AC traction) and the NYCT R142/A, R143 and all R160 types, and Toronto TTC's T-1 and SRT ICTS car fleets as awll as San Juan (Puerto Rico)'s Tren Urbano fleet
And I wonder if they were made by WABCO or Newtran too
