Are there no C651's on the NSL?
-
I stay at Choa Chu Kang and having been taking the NSL for around 10 years(i guess).
But so far, i didnt meet any C651. I have been hoping to meet at least one. Just wanted to see for myself the difference between C151 and C651.
-
hmm... take the trains more?
-
take trains more. i just alighted from a C651 15 minutes ago.
-
Have you taken one but you don't know yourself and mistaken it for a unrefurb C151? I mean.. Although there are only 19 sets of C651 but it's impossible that you haven't seen one for nearly 10 years...
-
Of course there are C651s! The most obvious difference is that the C651s have their windows tinted green.

That is a unrefurbished C151. Well lucky you, getting to take a unrefurb :) I just took 075/076 today too. Hahaha.C651 will be
x201 to x238.
Don't need to see the first number. See the last three number so that you'll know you are in a siemens. :)
PS
Siemens don't have ad :P 075/076 has a Sony Ericsson ad.

C651's GTO-VVVF motor is very distinct and different from the rest. I'll try to get a recording if I can.
-
I've got recordings done sometime ago. Maybe I'll upload it now. No need to trouble you Alan. :)
BRB once uploading is done if not I'll do it tmr.
-

take note of the initial start-up and deceleration motor sound.
