Overview

The Class 707 Desiro City is an electric multiple-unit manufactured by Siemens, in use on Stepford Connect. These trains are formed of 5 coaches, and cost 300 points.

Trivia

Prior to receiving a Next Generation upgrade, the in-game motor sounds did not match real life. They were corrected after the upgrade, first with the acceleration sound and then the braking sound.
These trains replaced the Class 700s in The Big Update.
This train is the only train from the Desiro City family to operate on SCR.
This train is much cheaper than most other of the Stepford Connect trains, with the exception of the free Class 357.
These trains are more successful in SCR than they are in real life, even before being upgraded to Next Generation. In real life, their operator (South Western Railway) is already planning on replacing their 707s with Class 701s.
The Class 707 is one of the few Next Generation trains that actually has automatic pocketed doors.
The Class 707 also has the cheapest points per carriage, with a low of 60 points per carriage, as it has 5 carriages and 300 points, only beaten by the free Class 357.
This is the only train with Marble Flooring.

 == Trivia ==
+* Prior to receiving a [[Next Generation]] upgrade, the in-game motor sounds did not match real life. They were corrected after the upgrade, first with the acceleration sound and then the braking sound.
-* Compared to real life, the sounds are different. Before becoming next-gen, both accelerating and decelerating made the sound produced by the 700 and 717 in real life when on overhead power, and the 707 only runs on third rail. When it became next-gen, the acceleration sound was corrected, but the deceleration sound wasn't changed. This is most noticeable when a driver undershoots a platform and then moves forward.
 * These trains replaced the [[Class 700]]s in [[The Big Update]].
-* This train is the only train from the ''Desiro City ''family to operate on SCR.
+* This train is the only train from the Desiro City'' ''family to operate on SCR.
-* This train and the [[Class 700]] are exactly the same with the exception of a livery change, the sounds, and the number of cars. No performance changes have been made.
+* This train is much cheaper than most other of the [[Stepford Connect]] trains, with the exception of the free [[Class 357]].
+* These trains are more successful in SCR than they are in real life, even before being upgraded to Next Generation. In real life, their operator (South Western Railway) is already planning on replacing their 707s with [[Class 701]]s.
-* These trains were frequently operated at [[Port Benton]], so much that the developers had to extend the [[Stepford Connect]] platform at that station.
-* This train is much cheaper than most other of the [[Stepford Connect]] trains, with the exception of [[Class 357]], which is free.
+* The Class 707 is one of the few [[Next Generation]] trains that actually has automatic pocketed doors.
+* The Class 707 also has the cheapest points per carriage, with a low of 60 points per carriage, as it has 5 carriages and 300 points, only beaten by the free [[Class 357]].
-* These trains are more successful in SCR than they are in real life. These trains are unwanted in real life (as they are being replaced by [[Class 701]] ''Aventra ''units, along with all Class 455, 456 and [[Class 458|458]] units for South Western Railway), whereas they are quite frequently used for Stepford Connect services.
+* This is the only train with Marble Flooring.
