FT3500
The FT3500 are the only two-deck railcars in circulation in Portugal, like their CP twins. Manufactured by Alstom/CAF, they entered service in 1998, with a painting similar to the current one. Over the years, some aesthetic and structural modifications have been made. These railcars reach 140km/h and have capacity for 886 passengers.

CP2240
These electric railcars are spread across the country providing various services, from suburban, regional, inter-regional and have even performed Intercidades and Alfa, when there is no other material available. The “Lilis”, nickname given due to having several plastic parts and having already had four paint versions, were created from the 2100 and 2200 series, also from CP.

These trains are accessible via a ramp, and have two spaces for people in wheelchairs and an accessible toilet. They have sound and visual announcements on board.
They are in the process of being renovated, with the installation of elevating platforms.
