Trainset: A753/A754
Journey: Choi Hung to Kowloon Bay approach, Kwun Tong to Tiu Keng Leng
Today (27 Nov 2022) is the first service day for the Q trains on the MTR Urban lines. This train model will enter service on the Kwun Tong Line and Island Line, followed by the Tsuen Wan Line and Tseung Kwan O Line. They will operate with the old SACEM signalling system first, and will be compatible with the Advanced SelTrac CBTC signalling system starting from 2025 on the Tsuen Wan Line.
New features of the train:
Ring shaped handrails and Faigle straphangers
Better seats
More standing space next to the door (only in the middle of B and C cars)
LED lighting
Dynamic routemaps
Servers for remotely accessing train analytics
Personal thoughts:
Colour choice in the interior could have been better
Does not feel spacious at all, probably due to the low ceiling
LED lighting is great but a warmer hue would be preferable (this goes to R and TML C trains as well as LRV Phase 5)
