I love how the seat colours are matching the old seats.

They should have release this 3 refurbished onces to service us will do, becoming a Rare Sight for us to ride instead of scrapping it just because cancellation...

[@KNSC751B]

How did you that set is 227/228?

[@BaySean]

Sadly the refurbishment of these 90s trains have been cancelled. As a result 5 sets of this model had been scrapped, because of faulty parts that are hard to repair nor replace.

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO REMOVE IT TO THE PMSM LIKE IN THE 'NEW' C151

[@DJ_Timotei]

@@mikan004 because GTO VVVF is outdated technology. It doesn't make sense to continue using it when there's newer and better equipment.
