==History==
On May 6, 2009, the Land Transport Authority announced that Kawasaki Heavy Industries and CSR Qingdao Sifang had won over Hyundai Rotem, Bombardier Transportation and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries to secure the contract at a cost of S$369 million, despite Hyundai Rotem offering the lowest bid at S$323 million for the order of 22 trainsets. CSR Sifang handled the manufacturing and testing of the rolling stock, while Kawasaki oversaw the project and design. The C151A contract was the first successful joint venture between these two companies in the international market.<ref>[http://www.csrgc.com.cn/ens/xwzx/2009-05-13/1277.shtml "CSR Sifang and Kawasaki Heavy Industries Won the Bid in the Subway Vehicle Project of Singapore"]. 13 May 2009.

==Equipment==
===Main Propulsion Controller===
The C151A trains is the third commuter type Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) made in Japan to feature electric systems fully manufactured by Fuji Electric. Propulsion is controlled by VVVF Inverter with 2-level IGBT semiconductor controller, rated at 415 kVA. Each inverter unit controls two motors on one bogie (1C2M), and one motor car features two of such units. Motors are three-phrase AC induction type, model MLR109, with a maximum output of 140 kW.
 
===Bogies===
The C151A trains uses the monolink axlebox type bolsterless air spring bogie. There are no major technical difference between a trailer and motor car bogie other than additional electrical components for the latter.


===Auxiliary systems===
In 2013, a further order of 13 trainsets was placed and as of 2014, all 35 trainsets have been officially put into revenue service.<ref>[//www.khi.co.jp/news/detail/20120829_1.html "Both orders for Singapore Subway Train 132 LTA"]. 29 Aug 2012. Retrieved 5 Sep 2012.</ref>
A break from tradition, the C151A trains features auxiliary inverters for its electrical systems on all six cars of the train. Previously, auxiliary inverters are mounted only on motor cars. The VVVF Inverter is controlled by IGBT semiconductors and rated at 80 kVA. A battery charger is built with the inverter and provides 16 kW output.


==Design==
On 5 July 2016, an investigative news report from FactWire alleged that KSF(A) trainsets were being shipped back to Qingdao for rectification due to multiple defects, including an exploding battery and cracks on trains, but without notifying the public beforehand. The Land Transport Authority acknowledged the trains were returned for rectification works, and have since published official statements to address FactWire's specific allegations.
===Exterior design===
The C151A trains are similar to the [[Kawasaki Heavy Industries & Nippon Sharyo C751B|C751B]] trains in terms of exterior looks, and have an identical propulsion motor sound. The only obvious difference comes from the front of the C151A trains. From the front, the train spotted a 'smiley face' curve design unlike the C751B trains which has a straight design. It also uses a yellow colour LED displays for Train Run Numbers while the C751B uses a orange.


===Interior design===
==Design/Features==
The interior of a C151A trains was however similar to the [[Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151|C151 trains]]. However, the C151A trains feature a light-color tone seats unlike the C151 counterpart. There are also 5 LED blinking light instead of 3 in the centre of the doors to warn passengers that the train doors are closing. Another notable difference is that the C151A was the first train to feature a much thicker grab poles.

The car numbers of the trains range from x501 to x570, where x depends on the carriage type.
*The first digit depends upon whether the car is the first, second or third car from the end of the train it is nearer to, where the first car has a 3, the second has a 1 and the third has a 2.
*The first digit identifies the position of the car from the closest end of the train; where ‘3’ represents first car, ‘1’ represents second car and ‘2’ represents third car.
*The other 3 digits is the train identification number. A full length train of 6 cars have 2 different identification number, one for the first 3 cars, and the same number plus 1, for the other three. The smaller number is always at the front.
**(Example) Passenger Vehicle 569/570 would consist of 6 cars with serial number 3569, 1569, 2569, 2570, 1570 and 3570 respectively.

Kawasaki Heavy Industries & CSR Qingdao Sifang 151A are the fourth generation of trains running on the North–South Line and the East–West Line.

History[edit]

On May 6, 2009, the Land Transport Authority announced that Kawasaki Heavy Industries and CSR Qingdao Sifang had won over Hyundai Rotem, Bombardier Transportation and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries to secure the contract at a cost of S$369 million, despite Hyundai Rotem offering the lowest bid at S$323 million for the order of 22 trainsets. CSR Sifang handled the manufacturing and testing of the rolling stock, while Kawasaki oversaw the project and design. Contract 151A was the first successful joint venture between these two companies in the international market.[1]

In 2013, a further order of 13 trainsets was placed and as of 2014, all 35 trainsets have been officially put into revenue service.[2]

On 5 July 2016, an investigative news report from FactWire alleged that KSF(A) trainsets were being shipped back to Qingdao for rectification due to multiple defects, including an exploding battery and cracks on trains, but without notifying the public beforehand. The Land Transport Authority acknowledged the trains were returned for rectification works, and have since published official statements to address FactWire's specific allegations.

Fleet Numbering[edit]

The car numbers of the trains range from x501 to x570, where x depends on the carriage type.

  • The first digit identifies the position of the car from the closest end of the train; where ‘3’ represents first car, ‘1’ represents second car and ‘2’ represents third car.
    • (Example) Passenger Vehicle 569/570 would consist of 6 cars with serial number 3569, 1569, 2569, 2570, 1570 and 3570 respectively.
  • Depending on the direction of travel, the sequence may be reversed.
