'''Bombardier MOVIA C951''' is the only type of trains running on the {{DTL}}. These trains were manufactured from 2012 to 2017 under the Contract 951.
 
==History==
Bombardier Transportation was awarded Contract 951 in 2008 at a cost of $570.7 million for the construction of 219 passenger cars.<ref>[//news.asiaone.com/News/the+Straits+Times/Story/A1Story20081108-99201.html "Downtown train deal goes to Bombardier"]. AsiaOne (8 November 2008). Retrieved 8 July 2016.</ref>
 
Land Transport Authority exercised the option for Contract 951 in 2013 at a cost of $119.2 million for the additional construction of 45 passenger cars. <ref>[//www.lta.gov.sg/apps/news/page.aspx?c=2&id=e09e1b35-7714-4701-a370-88699e32543c "Shorter Waiting Time With 15 More Trains For Downtown Line"]. Land Transport Authority (28 March 2013)</ref>
 
Land Transport Authority then exercised its option again for the second time later in 2013 for the additional construction of 12 passenger cars, bringing the total number of trainsets to 92.
 
==Operation==
The C951 trains run on an automated system (without attendant), relying on "continuous two-way digital communication" between each controlled train and the control centre that controls the entire line.

The '''Bombardier MOVIA C951''' is a type of train built by Bombardier Transportation for use on the [[Downtown Line]], Singapore, which is presently being built.
==Fleet Numbering==
 
The car numbers of the trains range from 9001x to 9092x, where x depends on the carriage type.
73 trainsets consisting of 3 cars each were purchased at a cost of approximately S$689.7 million for passenger service.<ref>[http://www.bombardier.com/en/transportation/media-centre/press-releases/details?docID=0901260d8005e2da Bombardier Receives Contract from Land Transport Authority of Singapore for 219 Driverless Metro Cars Valued at Approximately 298 Million Euros]</ref> Bombardier beat Alstom, Kawasaki Heavy Industries and Hyundai Rotem in the tendering process as the lowest cost offered.<ref>''Downtown train deal goes to Bombardier''.

*The last digit identifies the position of the car from the front end of the train; where ‘1’ represents first car, ‘2’ represents second car and ‘3’ represents third car.
 
**(Example) Passenger Vehicle 003 (also 9003) would consist of 3 cars with serial number 90031, 90032, 90033 respectively.
==Fleet==
*Depending on the direction of travel, the sequence may be reversed.
[[C951 Fleet Info]]
 
==Operation==
The C951 trains are fully automated, without attendant, running on a system similar to that used on the [[Alstom Metropolis C751A|C751A]] and [[Alstom Metropolis C830|C830]].
 
==Features==
===Design===
The C951 trains may include several features that were not seen in existing trains.<ref>[http://app.lta.gov.sg/corp_press_content.asp?start=uzth1f88ltw23y65rc72y0t2wqt50rid8w2893s39pxzdmvbbn Arrival Of Downtown Line Train Mock-Up]</ref>
 
New features include:
* an ergonomic seat profile;
* red reserved seats, which allows for clearer separation between normal and reserved seats;
* perch seats, replacing the two-seaters at the ends of the car;
* hand grips utilising joints instead of straps, providing commuters a steadier grip;
 
The train will also retain existing features like having two rows of poles and hand grips, and vertical poles which split into three at the center.
 
===Dynamic Route Map Display (DRMD)===
The Dynamic Route Map Display (DRMD), a rail travel information system, is newly introduced and developed for the C951 trains.
 
===Platform Gap Width Reduction (PGWR)===
The train doors have a frangible gap made of rubber that protrudes out. The platform-train gap will then be reduced, preventing passenger accidents due to the platform gap.
 
===Others===
The train will have regenerative braking which is usable over a larger range of speeds. This will generate electricity when the train slows, feeding it back to the rail network.
 
==Trainset numbers==
Individual cars are given a five-digit serial number by the rail operator, SBS Transit. The car numbers of the trains range from 9001x to 9073x, where x depends on the carriage type.
* The first digit is always a 9.
* The next three digits is the train identification number. A full length train of 3 cars will have the same identification number. For example, train 9010 would consist of 3 cars with serial number 90101, 90102, 90103 respectively.
* The last digit depends upon whether the car is the first, second or third car from the end of the train, where the first car has a 1, the second has a 2, the third has a 3.

Bombardier MOVIA C951 is the only type of trains running on the Downtown Line. These trains were manufactured from 2012 to 2017 under the Contract 951.

History

Bombardier Transportation was awarded Contract 951 in 2008 at a cost of $570.7 million for the construction of 219 passenger cars.[1]

Land Transport Authority exercised the option for Contract 951 in 2013 at a cost of $119.2 million for the additional construction of 45 passenger cars. [2]

Land Transport Authority then exercised its option again for the second time later in 2013 for the additional construction of 12 passenger cars, bringing the total number of trainsets to 92.

Operation

The C951 trains run on an automated system (without attendant), relying on "continuous two-way digital communication" between each controlled train and the control centre that controls the entire line.

Fleet Numbering

The car numbers of the trains range from 9001x to 9092x, where x depends on the carriage type.

  • The last digit identifies the position of the car from the front end of the train; where ‘1’ represents first car, ‘2’ represents second car and ‘3’ represents third car.
    • (Example) Passenger Vehicle 003 (also 9003) would consist of 3 cars with serial number 90031, 90032, 90033 respectively.
  • Depending on the direction of travel, the sequence may be reversed.
