Why does the orange line on the front curve upward? If it's supposed to
represent a safe distance from zap, shouldn't it curve downward if anything?


It doesn't generally cross any glass though. It will usually follow the
edge of windscreens. The Class 37 is possibly the most ridiculous example.

So they can clean the windscreen?

Harder seats, fewer seats per carriage, mostly longitudinal seating, lots of straps for hanging on while crammed in standing like cattle, no toilets. I will not enjoy riding these much.
Looks like a variation of a London Overground train.

Only plus point the windows are larger than the Overground.
