The SNCF Class Z 5600 is a double-deck electric multiple unit trainset that is operated by SNCF on line C of the Réseau Express Régional (RER), a hybrid suburban commuter and rapid transit system serving Paris and its Île-de-France suburbs and the TER Bourgogne-Franche-Comté regional rail system.

The 52 trainsets were built by a consortium of CIMT [fr], TCF, and TCO between 1982 and 1985.

The Z 5600 trainsets proved extremely successful and became the basis for the Z 2N series of trainsets, which were continuously improved over several generations. The Z 2N series was also the basis of the later MI 2N family of double-deck, dual power trainsets.
