Metro Manila Subway EMU 8 Car set
Metro Manila Subway EMU 8 Car set by GilbertRoyAlva
The rolling stock for the Metro Manila Subway is based on the PNR NSCR commuter trainsets to be built by the Japan Transport Engineering Company (J-TREC). An order for 240 railcars, arrangeable into thirty 8-car trainsets, has been finalized by the Department of Transportation on December 21, 2020.
According to DOTr Undersecretary Timothy John Batan, each 8-car trainset has a capacity of 2,242 passengers and will ease car traffic in Metro Manila equivalent to 1,300 cars, 220 jeepneys, or 60 buses. It will be powered through 1,500 V DC overhead lines similar to those ordered by PNR. Additionally, the rendered image of the rolling stock provided by Sumitomo features that the train has four doors on each side and uses a Type H tightlock coupler.
