The Bombardier MOVIA C951 cars belong to the newest generation of rolling stock on Singapore's Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system. 73 trainsets consisting of 3 cars each were purchased at a cost of approximately S$570.7 million for passenger service.[1] These rail trains will serve the Downtown Line and will be delivered from late 2012 to 2016.
Bombardier beat Alstom, Kawsaki Heavy Industries and Hyundai Rotem in the tendering process as the lowest cost offered.[2]
