Those cars Were suggested to the MTA.

They also said they wanted to build a railcar that looks like their EMU M7, BUT that also never went anywhere.

CDOT has designed a wonderful railcar ,DEMU for its branch system.
The Springfield line,and Shoreline East routes will be the primary operations, but Other routes along the system could be recipients (Danberry and the other shuttles).

The LIRR could use DEMU sets like the Alstom cars for through service from any City Zone terminal to eastern LI,or Jamaica to eastern terminals,or shuttles.
No big bulky engines separate from the coaches.

Siemens is building similar sets for NYS , for Amtraks Empire Division.
Able to run in both electric and non electric right of Way using DEMU trainsets equipment with wire and third rail.
