Forty-five trainsets comprising six cars each were procured, manufactured from 2014 to 2017 by Kawasaki Heavy Industries and CRRC Sifang in Qingdao, China.
Trainset 601/602 commenced revenue service on Sunday, 16 April 2017, running on the North-South Line.
Background
Contract 151B (C151B) for the supply of 45 trainsets for the North South and East West Lines was initiated to complement the Tuas West Extension of the East West Line, as well as the addition of capacity on both lines.
Awarded to a consortium of Kawasaki Heavy Industries and CSR Qingdao Sifang (now CRRC Qingdao Sifang) at an approximate value of S$281.5 million in August 2012, these trains were built in Qingdao, China. It was the second consecutive contract awarded to the consortium after they were awarded Contract C151A for 210 vehicles (35 trainsets). Each 6-car train is formed of two 3-car trainsets coupled together, each comprising of a Driving Trailer (DT) and two Motor Cars (M1 and M2).
History
The C151B trains are painted in a silver base coat, with a central yellow, red and black and band running the length of the train. Like the C151A, the front of the train was sloped to create a streamlined look.
The first of 45 trains were delivered in May 2015 and underwent rigorous testing prior to the commencement of revenue service. As these trains are only equipped with the Thales SelTrac Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) signalling system, they were tested on sections of track equipped with the new signalling system, such as the Tuas West Extension of the East West Line. Older NSEWL trains were delivered with the Westinghouse Fixed Block signalling system and received the CBTC signalling system as an upgrade, which occupies two seats at each end of the train.
On Sunday, 16 April 2017, the first C151B trainset 601/602 made its passenger service debut on the North South Line during the first full-day CBTC signalling system trial. C151B trainsets made their passenger service debut on the East West Line on Friday, 16 June 2017, during the Tuas West Extension Open House.
C151B trainsets returned to the Tuas West Extension (TWE) of the East West Line in January 2018, when the TWE (Gul Circle – Tuas Link) was operated as a separate part of the EWL in the aftermath of the Joo Koon Train Collision, which resulted in legacy and CBTC-equipped sections of track separated since November 2017. C151B trains plied the entire EWL starting from 6 May 2018, during full-day trials for of the CBTC signalling system on the EWL.
Current Design
All C151B trains are comprised of six cars with open gangway connections between all cars. Each car has eight doors, four on each side. Priority seats are located in every car, near the doors. Doors are also powered by electric motors, the first for NSEWL train.
The interior features longitudinal seating in three colours: fuchsia, cobalt blue and turquoise from the end cars to the middle cars, with the middle seats in every row of a lighter colour shade. Priority seats are located in every car, near the doors. All trains are equipped with STARiS, SMRT’s active route information system comprising ceiling-mounted Vacuum Fluorescent Displays (VFD) displaying text and LCD Information Panels mounted above every door in each car.
For the interior, the trains have three-branched stanchion poles and three rows of handgrips. The poles were also fashioned in a larger diameter, similar to the C151A trains. Two wheelchair bays are installed on every train, near doors 12 and 13.
Emergency Exits are located at both ends of every train, with a ramp that can be deployed in an emergency. Within the cabin, Emergency Communication Buttons are located at the side of the train doors, enabling passengers to speak with staff in an emergency. Fire extinguishers are also placed in every car.
