Wa, you even younger than those trains sia. New generation born in 90s. 😁

Anyway, i thought those 1987 trains long long ago already replaced? How come still running until today and now then completely replaced all? Lol. I find those 1987 train quite nice lo, better than all those newer replaced train.

I found those trains road and wind noise a bit intrusive. And the seats a bit narrow.

You serious? Fly back to ride the new trains? Lol. Even like the new 3 door double decker here, so far i still have not ride on one yet. Could be due to the bus route which i might take no operate on these 3 door buses, and also nowadays i seldom take public transport liao. So dont know if i would have the chance to ride on the new trains?!

They really max up the usage of the trains. Or it means the trains really durable and can operate for so long? Lol.

That's me also. I was reborn every 45 years like that mah.

Girls don't like wrinkled man. I like to rejuvenate myself from time to time. 😈

they did a mid term refurbishment to extend the lifespan of the trains.
