This video features a KHI C151, 003/004, which is from TWD to serve EWL for the AM Rush Hours, from EW24 Jurong East to EW25 Chinese Garden.

003/004 would first get back onto the tracks of the East-West Line after replacing 097/098 into UPD last night while on EWL Full Day Run 123. Runs on the slot which is the last AM Withdrawal at TWD. Welcome back onto the tracks of EWL after spending almost 1 month on NSL.

Strong Motor can be heard on car 2003 A1/B1. Note that when approaching Chinese Garden, 003/004 had some rough braking that caused the friction brakes to kick in, and hence no regenerative motor was heard.
