Don't anyhow make assumption that C651 will be undergo refurbishment. I don't think 201/202 is doing the refurbishment so it might be having the maintenance. Just wait for our Manager to announce here once SMRT's decision to refurbish C651 is confirmed at later date.
And who say that 51/52 and 121/122 is in bad condition? Having boarded them many times even after their refurbishment, they are still OK.

(reason: both of them cuz the 1993 first MRT train crash accident that left hundreds injured) still not in a good condition after refurbishment...
227/228
(first c651 derailment in 1999)
ok, if you think that they are not gd then you can don't board them..
I don't mind in the least if the condition or watsoever of the trains are not gd as long as it takes me to my required destination can already..

THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
it's not feb yet...
anyway, 069/070 has already gotten its logo on both ends. saw it on ewl today.
and, our first refurbished train is doing the changi airport shuttle.
hmmm 009/010,19/20,29/30 and 129/130 made its rare appearance in nsl lately... and 4 snickers train came consectively first time in their svc in ewl....leaving 107/108 in nsl
read on 'today' free newspaper... complaints given to SMRT that bugs found on seats inside trains and buses...... therefore communters will feel itchy throughout the journey and after alightling
055/056 and 059/060 have not gotten the sticker on both ends yet...do not know about 109/110, and 71-76
Have anyone took the Circle Line's Alstom Metropolis C830 Trains? And have anyone gone into Pioneer Station and Joo Koon Station?

in the 1st place, are they in operation yet..

Part of the circle line will open in around may/june.
Pioneer and Joo Koon will open end-feb.
I took 001/002 today. Super dirty!
(Look at the top part!)
(The sticker is starting to turn brown...)
some of the C151s flooring is also starting to show some dirt/stains..
Originally posted by QX179R:some of the C151s flooring is also starting to show some dirt/stains..
agree...
oh ya, 203/204 was spotted today, so no refurbishment for it yet!
067/068 still no sticker...
Originally posted by Stage:067/068 still no sticker...
it has.
not only that the trains are logoless... some got weird cases....
1) the emergeny exit in 009/010 and (025/026 in the past) do not have the green instructions
2)some trains, the yellow label 'keep clear of doors' also dun have
3) those trains that were refurbished in 2007, do not have a additional metal bar on the right side between the 3rd and forth carriage..
73/74-logoless.. 67-72 got logo
and yes 001/002 must go another round of refurbishment and painting... those newly refurbed trains got rough flooring
most likely when CCL and the 2 stations opened... there will be changes in the announcements and the MRT maps.....
so far bz lately but today got at least free time...
so far the trains 201/202,57/58 and 117/118 has went MIA!!!!

both on NSL.... i saw the SE orange ad...... whatever it is, i'll always be on NSL (:
71-74: spotted on these two days

spotted during peak/non-peak hr?
i am not frequent on nsl, so spotting these trains would depend on whether the trains move to ewl or not.
071/072 spotted on EWL today..
1455hrs at Simei heading WB towards Boon Lay..
ah...sigh. i was at PSR at around 4.30!!!
71/72 would have reached PSR around 20-25mins later!!!
so, did 71/72 have the logo on both ends?
