Trivia[]
- Before the 5th April 2021, all /3 variant units were painted in a special livery to commemorate SCR reaching five million visits. After the aforementioned day, these units were repainted into the rebranded standard AirLink livery, along with the /4 variant.
- These trains are the only trains in SCR to have one pair of doors on each side of every coach. It is also the only multiple unit train built by Stadler in SCR.
- The engines of this train are all located in a single non-seated power car, instead of under the floor of each coach.
- This is the last train on AirLink to receive the rebranded livery.
- This is also the only train in SCR to have its own special power car. However, they are not counted as a coach.
- This is the only AirLink train to have a cost of 2,250 points.
- Before its mesh, the shape of the Class 755 has been criticised for being curved the opposite way and being quite blocky.
- Passengers that are standing in the passenger coaches of the Class 755 will not be touching the ground. Instead, they float for some reason. This is most likely due to hit boxes.
- After the Class 755 received the new AirLink livery in V1.7.3, the /3 variant was unable to be spawned, and an error message appeared which read 'Train replication focus error', along with 'Invalid route leg data' once players pressed the back button.
- An attempted fix occurred later towards the end of April 2021, but it loaded up as a partly transparent green box instead, and if players attempted to spawn it, it then resulted in the error message 'Train initialisation failed due to unhandled error'.
- Another fix happened on the 1st May 2021, where the green box was removed and you can now spawn the train, but attempting to move it now results in 'Irrecoverable movement control failure'.
- Former Innovations Director BanTech had tried to fix this bug multiple times (and even rebuilt the train multiple times), but it was unsuccessful, trying to figure out how the /3 is 'different' to the /4 when they should be similar.
- The issue was finally fixed in V1.8 and both trains can now be driven as normal.
- The Class 755 was the only AirLink train to have first class in game but not in real life.
- Its first class accommodation was removed as part of its NGv3 upgrade in V1.10.7.
- With its upgrade to NGv3, the Class 755 also received a new animation for its level boarding and a slightly different door animation.
- As of V1.10.7, this train is one the two AirLink trains not to have first class, along with the Class 345.
- Many players anticipated a mesh model of this train for V1.10 as it was a major overhaul for the Stepford Airport, but were disappointed when it still remained as a NGv1 train.
- Additionally, this is the only NGv1 train that made it into Innovations Director BanTech's V1.10 trailer video as all other trains in the trailer were NGv3.
- Ultimately, this train was meshed in V1.10.7, making it the final train on AirLink to be upgraded to NGv3.
- As of V1.10.7, the Class 755 is currently missing its idle sound and its acceleration sound.

- It is speculated that this train will be moving to Stepford Connect or the AirLink Shuttle sub-operator when the Class 745 will be added to the game as Class 745s are 12 cars in length and have first class in real life, which is seen as more suited to run on AirLink compared to the Class 755.
