This article appears to be at or about the right level for a GA. I will now check the article in more detail.
Each car is equipped with four three-phase asynchronous 140-kilowatt (190 hp) motors, giving each three-car unit a power output of 1,680 kilowatts (2,250 hp). In each car, the four motors are fed by the car's own insulated-gate bipolar transistor. They transform the 750 volt direct current collected from the third rail shoe to the three-phase direct current used in the motors. The frequency and amplitude of the current fed to the engines varies depending on the train's speed.
References, I'm not convinced that this article provides adequate English-language citations to verify the claims made. Most of the citations are based on the use of Norwegian newspaper articles (in Norwegian); however the manufacturer of the MX3000 is not a Norwegian company and it provides information in both German and English. I have added two English-language links, one on metros and one an the MX 3000. Pyrotec ( talk) 13:05, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations on the article, I'm awarding GA-status. Pyrotec ( talk) 14:53, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
