The '''ER200''' was a Soviet electric train built in [[Place:Riga|Riga]] by Rīgas Vagonbūves Rūpnīca. It was the first high-speed Direct Current intercity [[Engineering:Multiple unit|Electric Multiple Unit]] (EMU) train with rheostatic brake.
There were two designs. The first design, begun in 1974, was the ER200-1 EMU, and went into commercial operation in 1984. The second design went into operation between Saint Petersburg and [[Place:Moscow|Moscow]] in 1996.
