'''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 Numbering==
 
The car numbers of the trains range from 01 to 22.
==Fleet==
*Passenger Vehicles 1 to 10 and 17 to 20 serve PMS North.
[[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Crystal Mover Fleet Info]]
*Passenger Vehicles 11 to 16, 21 and 22 serve PMS South.
 
==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==
==References==
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.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Crystal Mover are the second generation of trains running on the Changi Airport Skytrain. Trains on either side of the skytrain features different colouring scheme despite building with the same specification.

History[edit]

Mitsubishi delivered 16 Crystal Mover vehicles to Singapore Changi Airport, ten of which are allocated to PMS/North and six to PMS/South. The Crystal Mover was also designed for flexible response to a variety of operations, from a one car operation to multiple coupled-car operations, depending upon the system requirements. [1]

To increase the system capacity of the Skytrain, six new train cars have been purchased which subsequently entered service in 2019 in conjunction with the upgrading of the Changi Airport Skytrain.[2]
