Description
These 100 meter long, Air-conditioned, Walk-through trains first entered service on the line in September 2012. Since May 1st 2013, the line has been served exclusively by the new trains, as the last Russian-built train was taken out of service from the line on April 30th 2013. This video was also taken before the line converted to ATO (Automatic Train Operation) in December 2013, and therefore the trains are manually driven.
