Fleet
Operation
The C801A trains are fully automated, without attendant, running on a system that are similar to the C801 trains.
Vehicles can be coupled in pairs during peak hours.
Features
Design
The C801A trains are relatively different from the C801 trains in terms of exterior and interior looks.
- Painted with SMRT's new livery.
- Circular headlights unlike the C801s, which have rectangular headlights.
- Ergonomic seat profile.
- Red reserved seats for clearer separation between normal and reserved seats.
- Yellow hand grips.
Others
Similarly to the C801 trains, rubber-tired wheels are used to run on a concrete track extremely quiet. Windows mist within 6 meters of residential buildings, eliminating both noise and privacy concerns.
Trainset numbers
Individual cars are given a three-digit serial number by the rail operator, SMRT Corporation, ranging from 120 to 133.
