High speed rolling stock are generally defined as trains that can operate 125mph or faster. High speed rolling stock generally connect large metropolitan areas (with very few stops in between).Although High speed rolling stock in general are compatible with regular passenger and freight trains, it requires dedicated tracks to operate at high speed.
Multiple Unit

Power and auxiliary equipment is usually distributed under more than one vehicle and is all controlled from the driving position. Vehicles in multiple units are usually referred to as cars and are known as motor cars if powered and trailer cars if not.
