This train is operating in the Philippines as a donation of the Japanese government. But since the commuter line is not electrified, they did 1. Attach a GE locomotive 2. Remove pantograph and cabin controls except air-conditioning and door controls. 3. Placed a generator at the front and rewired the coaches. This train is currently operating in Manila until December. Next year, 203 will be relocated to the province to give way for North South Commuter Railway construction. "NSCR" is a modern electrified train line using "CBTC" signalling.
