[@glitchFan2428]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I believe all of the trains in Singapore that sound familiar have their origins in Japan which explains the similarities

These motor sounds are originally from Japan thats why is so similar

Jika anda ingin mendengar suara C151 unrefurbished cobalah pergi ke Jakarta, disana masih tersisa dua kereta seri 05 yang masih beroperasi. Kereta seri 05 menggunakan sistem propulsi yang sama dengan dengan C151 unrefurbished yaitu GTO-Chopper, suara yang dikeluarkan tentu sama.Tetapi sayangnya kereta tersebut akan menjalani retrofit dalam waktu dekat, jadi saya tidak yakin kereta tersebut masih bertahan hingga akhir 2024. Saat ini dua kereta tersebut beroperasi di Tanjung Priok Line.
