  I believe someone mistook it for 119/120. I saw 043/044 too.

  Whoa! Lucky guy! I haven't taken a 'new train this month' yet! besides 041/042 recently which doesn't look so new anymore...

   

  And 115/116 is still in white colour outside? Are both 115/116 white or isit just 115 which is white and 116 is black?
   There will be 3 more confirmed trains for October anyway :)

  115/116 does not have the black sticker as then. Think it'll be getting the body work in these few days before becoming the first October train.

  This train got personal teevee, leather seats + massage or not?

  I guess that 039/040 will be the last C151 train with exterior Ads to undergo refurbishment.

  Last Monday, I saw 059/060 which was only unrefurbished C151 train running on EWL. Nowadays, it become quite hard to spot a single unrefurbished C151 train on EWL as I kept seeing like so many C651 train whenever I look out for white train.

  not very true. 075/076 still have the Sony Ericsson ads as of ytd evening. EWL spammed by the refurbished trains. unrefurbished trains mostly on NSL.

  Haha. I knew it :D

  And yes, I see quite a number of C151 unrefurbs on NSL sometimes. The number of Unrefurb C151's are lesser then the C651's already!

  haha. 13 sets of unrefurbished trains left. the unrefurbs are thrown onto NSL usually. not sure why. but 067/068 still have the loudest announcement systems among all the unrefurbed.

  Ya ya.. When 075/076's Sony Ericsson ads is expired, then it has to go for either new exterior ads makeover or undergo refurbishment. But 075/076 is more likely to undergo refurbishment once SE advertisement is expired. So that's why I have a feeling that 039/040 will be undergoing refurbishment later after 075/076. :)

  No wonder that NSL has more unrefurbished C151 train than EWL. So it's easy to tell the car number of train which is being MIA from NSL for some times.

  033/034 is refurbished running on NSL today. Yes, it has SMRT logo on its ends.

  And this morning, I saw 051/052 with interior refurbished doing test run at Bishan depot but in old livery. Can someone confirm if I see the car number correctly at Bishan depot (051/052 is disappearing from NSL for some times)?
