[SNEAK PEEK] Alstom Metropolis C851E Set 865 - Visiting the Singapore Rail Testing Centre, Phase 1

[@SGTransportCam]

the first time where a CCL train runs overground, great video btw!

[@ahboi_trains201]

correct, and thank you! 🥰

[@calvinkulit]

you're only counting overground on local soil, yes?

[@ahboi_trains201]

​@@calvinkulityes, after all they'll be forever underground once they're done with the testing at SRTC.

[@SBS1z]

Th outer livery is reskinned, uses C830C DRMD and motor, Doors and main interior is C830, seat colour combination is different, and the extra window at the end of each car! Plus the doors are abit thicker if U haven't noticed ❤❤❤

[@SGrailadventure2004]

At this point, NEL and CCL are the true 'underground or Alstom' version to the NSEWL as the C851E acts as a 'backup' model of the C751C and C830C while supporting the new extensions in which the model was brought for. I wonder if the C851E will use the old announcements that the C830C is currently using also when it debuts

[@Fals3Agent]

such a shame that these trains have these beautiful ceiling-to-seat windows but they only run underground.

[@MoraxIsDEAD]

It's so rare for ccl to be overground but

[@ihavenofriends181]

so sad that it does not have the same blue doors as its predecessors

[@sussy001]

@@ihavenofriends181only C830C has it The older C830 have white door

[@hannabarberanicktoons2014]

Wow! It has C830C Motor but with C830's door interior. Now I can call this a really CCL C851E

[@SGrailadventure2004]

C830C doors looks a bit weird compared to the C751C

I will still enjoy listening to my english female singer songs(CCL white playlist)in this train

I will take photos of the train doors in this train for my personal use

By the time C851E (CCL) debuts in around Year 2025, All C651 trains has been fully retired by Early 2025

[@n9obs_win237]

2:10 old announcements! c851e motor is just c830c lol

[@josephinthechickensoup123]

Is the train testing centre beside the Tuas west depot?

[@94Princeking]

Yes

[@Im_nobody-A350]

It is also just before Tuas Checkpoint

Saw the DRMD above the door, just like NEL. "Why you never give me an LCD screen, why? Why give me an outdated DRMD?"

when will they debut

[@svc855bsoe]

I like this C851E (CCL) train, its my future most favourite public transport series better than c151 and c830

[@BusandTrainLover57]

I am excited for new c851e ccl train, its more intresting than old trains

[@AlstomMetropolisCCL875]

I said C851E (CCL) and 4th Generation Train (CCL) are my same opinion and they are both my favourite trains on earth

[@TimothyMokCJ]

Also saw the new Live Firing Area sign "Force May Be Used - No Entry Beyond This Point, Keep Clear" with the soldier having a gun and toxic substance.

[@HarrisonLuiEKYiss]

I was hyped for the new CCL and NEL trains… until they don’t have the new DRMD display. I understand that Alstom didn’t get the order to make the DRMD display but how come LTA wont replace with the new DRMD display??? 😭

Cost saving!

The CCL C851E has a lot of differences as compared to the NEL variant, but disappointingly, doesn't have a LCD DRMD.

I think you meant the North East Line, their oldest trains have the new LCD screen for their upgrade works. This new Circle Line train for some reason don't have it, damn wasted sia

@@ahboi_trains201 i think the circle line should do the upgrade to TV screen for the train with white doors

@@madamwong5429 I think so too, but it is still LTA's decision at the end of the day, hopefully they do so!

[@ihavenofriends181]

why "Please do not lean ON the train doors" instead of "AGAINST"

[@SebastiansEpicVideosOfficial]

Because it has old announcements for testing

[@ahboi_trains201]

That was the old 2012 announcements, used by Circle Line trains back when the Marina Bay Extension first opened. As to why they changed it, still have no idea till today! 😅

[@Felix87953.YTStudio]

This is actually the same motor as C830C,I can't believe they are using the same motor just like North East line C751C😂😂😂😂

[@ahboi_trains201]

Yeah, they directly copied the motors directly from their respective Gen 2 predecessors.. really lives up to the batch 2 joke! 😂

[@Felix87953.YTStudio]

I know,first time to hear C851E's motor sounds😅😅😅😅

See C851E NEL vvvf motor copy C751C and then C851E CCL copy C830C vvvf motor

It uses old announcement

[@MrColinTheBusDriver]

Sounds different from C830C

[@ahboi_trains201]

It sounds different because of the rather slow acceleration we were shown.. but nonetheless, motor is still the same as the C830C.

[@svc143bsoe]

I like the motor of c830c and c851e (ccl) better than c830, pls respect my opinion

can they just install those drmd screens instead of a route map display? kinda bored with the drmd map displays...

I wish so too, but it seems like they're bound to stick to the route map display anyways..
