LRT Line 1 Refurbished Rolling Stock Project

Project Description

A refurbished BN ACEC 1st Generation LRV and Kinki Sharyo and Nippon Sharyo 3rd Generation LRV features an Active Route Map and the STARiS version 2.0 features real-time multi-purpose displays that feature landmarks in the vicinity of a station when the train arrives at a station. Animated advertisements, including local commercials and movie trailers, will also be available.

The 4-car LRTA 1000 class and LRTA 1200 class stainless steel trains feature electrically operated automatic sliding doors, larger gangway, air-conditioning, dedicated space for passengers with reduced mobility, route map in English & Traditional Chinese, LED display, and announcement for passenger information, and luggage racks. They will be equipped with a regenerative braking system ensuring significant energy savings. These cars, although similar to their counterparts running on the LRT-1, they feature LCD showing the station number and station name in each car.

The trains underwent a four-year mid-life refurbishment program, which was completed on 2 January 2016.
