As of 3 p.m. on Monday, the MRT-3 said it has 15 operational trains with arrival intervals of six minutes.

“We’re now running 15 trains… We last fielded 15 operational trains on January 5, 2018,” DOTr- MRT-3 media relations officer Aly Narvaez told reporters.

On Sunday, the DOTr said that it has completed restoration of 47 cars of the MRT-3, equivalent to 15 trains plus two spare light rail vehicles.
