I am not from SMRT, just that I don't usually speculate things until I can confirm it.

Not you lah. Manager433 is from SMRT.
so far i think 121/122 and 117/118 will out by this week or next wekk. so do keep a lookout on NSL before they are transferred to EWL.... so i think last batch of 1G trains were officially refurbished.....and 041/042 was the August train. hope from 2009 onwards that 1G trains are officially refurbished and siemens train can go refurbish next year.
C651 won't be refurbished so soon -.-
Probably in another 5 years time (am I right?) That is why you see the 'Priority Seat' stickers on the C651's instead of the bound-to-be-refurbished C151's with the old sticker on them. Besides.. Treasure the time with the un-refurbished C151's as I (you, we) will miss their 'oldness' :) At least we still get to see 19 sets of O-B-G-G-B-O trains for the next 5 years with white livery :D

Originally posted by Russianroulette2004:039/040 was still in service on Friday (24 Oct) during peak hours. Perhaps that's its last day in service prior to refurbishment?
That's why I put 039/040 as "unconfirmed" as I spotted 039/040 parking at that area at night of 24 Oct. Unless anyone of us spot 039/040 running for revenue service very recently after 24 Oct, then I will remove it from the list.
yea mann... so far the next one to go for refurbishment is 055/056 if it is on NSL lately.... the trains those were refurbished in 2007 looks so yellowish currently and the air-conditioning doesnt feel so good as it is too warm... i think the label no. 005/006 on the exterior is tiny compared to 001/002.... and the fan in the middle is also getting dusty and needs to change or clean it.
so far i think 049/050 is the last train under tokyu car corp. to be refurbished and tokyu car corp. and the first batch to have the trains refurbished. but anw EWL uses more trains than NSL.... -.- i just want to know why?
001/002 already got rusts on the metal lining on the doors already :D Can't rmb which door and tht day i took 087/088 and a/c vent leaking and got puddle on floor alr... (The 4th door on 1088 at the last priority seat on the last side if 087 is leading.)
wow if the condition of trains cannot last 1-2 years then i wonder what the condition of the trains would be when they are due for refurbishment again
2010 - MLD for C151 revert back to the old O-B-G-G-B-O interiors and white exterior.. Start from 075/076 first.

Better take camp for unrefurbs soon cuz they're are gonna 'go' soon (you know what i mean.. the feeling, all these)
Oh ya.. some news.
039/040 is NOT going for any refurbishment yet or soon. It was seen today 1241hrs on NSL southbound @ Bishan with old courtesy ad, old front and O-B-G-G-B-O interiors :) (I'll update the list for Novawin :))
And for SMRT 'head bands'..
131/132 has gotten them already T.T
(Edit: Side question, how long has 039/040 got the courtesy ad on it alr?)

I spotted 117/118 serving the ewl westbound today at around 3.30pm without "head bands". Think there were passengers in it.

117/118 should be out recently after its refurbishment is completed. Anyway, I updated the list.
i last saw 051/052 on early october and it was unrefurbished and was running on NSL..... i notice that this unrefurb train has a very old number labelling..... like the numbers (3051) it sticks as
3|0|5|1
so far i think this train is still on refurbishment.....not on test...
and c651 trains tend to feel hot nowadays....
121/122 i seldom saw this train on service...i think it will be out in few days time....
so far i still waiting for 067/068 to have a complete refurbishment
007/008 and 213/214 are on NSL ytd when i saw them .... cuz the past one week they were running on EWL
