==Rolling stock== [[File:Train_parade_in_Moscow_Metro_15.05.2015.webm|thumb|thumbtime=20|A train parade on the Circle Line]] Since the beginning, [[railway platform|platforms]] have been at least {{convert|155|m}} long to accommodate eight-car trains. The only exceptions are on the [[Filyovskaya Line]]: [[Vystavochnaya]], [[Mezhdunarodnaya (Moscow Metro)|Mezhdunarodnaya]], [[Studencheskaya (Moscow Metro)|Studencheskaya]], [[Kutuzovskaya (Filyovskaya Line)|Kutuzovskaya]], [[Fili (Metro)|Fili]], [[Bagrationovskaya]], [[Filyovsky Park (Moscow Metro)|Filyovsky Park]] and [[Pionerskaya (Moscow Metro)|Pionerskaya]], which only allows six-car trains (note that this list includes all ground-level stations on the line, except [[Kuntsevskaya (Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya and Filyovskaya lines)|Kuntsevskaya]], which allows normal length trains). Trains on the Zamoskvoretskaya, [[Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya line|Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya]], Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya, [[Kalininskaya line|Kalininskaya]], [[Solntsevskaya line|Solntsevskaya]], [[Bolshaya Koltsevaya line|Bolshaya Koltsevaya]], [[Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya line|Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya]], [[Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya line|Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya]] and [[Nekrasovskaya line|Nekrasovskaya]] lines have eight cars, on the Sokolnicheskaya line seven or eight cars, on the original Koltsevaya line seven cars, and on the Filyovskaya line six cars. The [[Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya]] line also once ran seven-car 81-717 size trains, but now use five-car trains of another type. [[Butovskaya line]] uses three-car trains of another type. Dimensions have varied subtly, but for the most cars fit into the ranges of {{Convert|19-20|m|ftin}} long and {{Convert|2.65 - 2.7|m|ftin|frac=8}} wide with 4 doors per side. The [[81-740/741|81-740/741 Rusich]] deviates greatly from this, with a 3-car Rusich being roughly 4 normal cars and a 5-car Rusich being 7 normal cars. {| class="wikitable" style="float;" |+Rolling Stock for Moscow Metro |- bgcolor="#e8e8e8" !

They were transported from the [[Berlin U-Bahn]] during the Soviet occupation. A-type and B-type trains were custom-made since the opening. <gallery mode="packed" heights="115"> File:Seligerskaya station, A train (2).jpg|A-type File:Type B metro train at Krasnoselskaya.jpg|B-type File:V4-158, Krasnaya Presnya depot.jpg|V-4-type (former Berlin Class C-1) File:V2 train in curve, Kutuzovskaya - Fili (cropped).jpg|V2-type (former Berlin Class C-2) File:Moscow metro G 530 museum car.jpg|G-type File:D subway train in Moscow.jpg|D-type File:Wiki-e.jpg|E-type File:I 10001 in depot.jpg|I-1-type (81-715.1/716.1) File:Metro train I 10004.jpeg|I-2-type (81-715.2/716.2) File:Metro wagon 81-720.jpg|[[81-720/721|81-720/721-type ("Yauza")]] </gallery> === Trains in operation === Currently, the Metro only operates 81-style trains. Rolling stock on several lines was replaced with articulated 81-740/741 Rusich trains, which were originally designed for light rail subway lines. The [[Butovskaya Line]] was designed by different standards, and has shorter ({{convert|96|m|adj=on}} long) platforms. It employs articulated 81-740/741 trains, which consist of three cars (although the line can also use traditional four-car trains). On the Moscow Monorail, Intamin P30 trains are used, consisting of six short cars. On the [[Moscow Central Circle]], which is a route on the conventional railway line, ES2G [[Lastochka]] trains are used, consisting of five cars. <gallery mode="packed" heights="135"> File:Metro train 81-717.5M-714.5M 2606 in tunnel.jpg|[[Metrovagonmash 81-717/81-714|81-717/81-714-type]] File:Retro-train of Moscow Metro.jpg|81-717.5A/81-714.5A-type ("retro train") File:81-717.6-714.6, Pechatniki depot (cropped).jpg|81-717.6-714.6-type File:81-740-741, Fili.jpg|[[81-740/741|81-740/741-type ("Rusich")]] File:81-760-761 № 37132, Севастопольская.jpg|[[81-760/761|81-760/761-type ("Oka")]] ([[:ru:Ока (вагон метро)|ru]]) File:81-765-766-767 on Barrikadnaya metro station.jpg|[[81-765/766/767]]-type ("Moscow") File:Terekhovo - station hall and 81-775 train (5) (cropped).jpg|[[81-775/776/777]]-type ("Moscow-2020") File:Mmts timiryazevskaya wiki 14.jpg|Intamin P30 train (operates on the [[Moscow Monorail|Monorail]] line) File:ES2G-050.jpg|[[Lastochka|ES2G Lastochka]] train (operates on the [[Moscow Central Circle]] line) </gallery>
