'''Changi Airport Skytrain''' is a people mover system that connects Terminals 1, 2 and 3 of Singapore Changi Airport. Opened in 1990, it was the first auto-guided system in Asia.[http://www.cpgcorp.com.sg/portfolio/viewdetails.asp?PCID=9&PDID=116 (1)] The Changi Airport Skytrain operates from 0500 to 0230 daily and operates at 1 to 2 minute intervals.[http://www.changiairport.com/changi/en/airport_guide/getting_around/terminal_transfer.html (2)] Travel on the Skytrain is free and an inter-terminal journey takes about 90 seconds. All stations have platform screen doors, are air conditioned and have plasma displays indicating the arrival time of the next train.

With the opening of the {{Stn|Changi Airport| station}} on 8 February 2002, the Skytrain is able to connect passengers at Terminal 1 to the [[Mass Rapid Transit|MRT]] station entrances located at Terminals 2 and 3.[http://infopedia.nlb.gov.sg/articles/SIP_574_2004-12-23.html (3)]

Initially, the Skytrain rolling stock consisted of [[Bombardier Innovia APM 100]]s, jointly built by Westinghouse and Adtranz (acquired by Bombardier). In 2002, work began on a new S$135 million [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Crystal Mover|Mitsubishi Crystal Mover]]-based system to accommodate the planned opening of Terminal 3 and the projected increase in demand as the airport expands.[http://www.changiairport.com/changi/en/about_us/history_changi.html (4)]

The previous rolling stock of Bombardier Innovia APM 100 ran without a second carriage per train (as opposed to the current Mitsubishi Crystal Movers, which runs with two carriages per train), and the first two platform screen doors of each station were for emergency purposes (The Innovia APM 100s stopped at the outer half of each station, with two doors on each half.).

The third rail, formerly at the centre of the track, was moved to the side. The new system opened in March 2006 between Terminals 1 and 2 and opened the connection with Terminal 3 in November 2007 during Terminal 3's open house.

Between Terminal 3 Station B and Terminal 2 Station E was closed from 24 February 2015 till 2018 due to construction of Jewel Changi, and also upgrading to 3-car system at Terminal 3 Station B. To connect between Terminal 2 and 3, they need to connect above MRT paid link is at Basement 1.

==Future Expansion==
Plans are in place for future expansions of the system. These would include a 2-station single lane shuttle of about 500 m in length serving the southside of Terminal 2 from Station F, and a 4-station dual lane shuttle of about 1400 m to serve a future Terminal 4.[http://www.leaelliott.com/Information/PDF/Singapore+Changi+Airport+by+Cindy+Sugimoto.pdf (5)]

Between Terminal 2 and 3, it will be upgraded from 2-car to 3-car system while Terminal 3 to Terminal 3 South will be upgraded from 1-car to 2-cars system. And will be purchased 6 trains upsized from 16 to 22 from [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Crystal Mover|a same train specification]] and will be purchased by 2019.

'''Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Crystal Mover''' is an automated people mover (APM) train built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries for the use on the [[Changi Airport Skytrain]]. These trains are mainly for airport and light rail applications, operating by Automatic Train Control (ATC), making it fully automatic and driverless.

==Fleet==
[[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Crystal Mover Fleet Info]]

==Operation==
The Crystal Mover trains are fully automated, without attendant, running on a system that are similar to the [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries C810|C810]] and [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries C810A|C810A]] trains.

Trains can be coupled for two-car operations. But in the future, between Terminal 3 Station B and Terminal 2 Station E, it will upgrade to 3-car system.

==Features==
The Crystal Mover trains have similar features to the [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries C810|C810]] and [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries C810A|C810A]] trains, but converted to a bar train having 18 seats replaced with 2 horizontal bars.

==Trainset numbers==
Individual cars are given a two-digit serial number by the rail operator, Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, ranging from 01 to 16. But they upgraded 6 trains and make it to 22 trains, it will be between 17 and 22.
