Hmmm I didn't even know about the RA2 - there is a RA1, which is a single
car. And the ACh2, which is a single car, which can bull similar unpowered
cars. And the older ACh1 of course.
It looks like a "modular" design to me.

They are not always green, though Russiand trains tend to be green with a
yellow stripe, there are lots pf colour schemes. The most common ER type is
green with a yellow stripe.

My personal faivourite is the 2TE10 or 2TE116 type. Once I should build one
:-)
