Guess The Train

This thread is a take on Guess The City, in that the aim of the game is to guess the type of train and the city it's running in. To make it a bit easier, if you just post the city the train is running in, that's OK too. Feel free to name the type of train though.

I'll start with an easy one:

Have fun

1. No it's not Sydney.

2. The model/class of train. I suppose it's not necessary, I changed the rules to allow for people who only guess the city the train is running in to win.

The colours yellow and blue remind me of the trains of the NS (Netherlands), but the one on the pic looks too old...

No, it's not the Netherlands. The train isn't old, it was introduced in 2007.

Hint: The train does not run at the station in the pic currently. Otherwise, this should be easy.
