This video features a KHI C151, 053/054, which is from UPD to serve NSL for the AM Rush Hours, from NS26 Raffles Place to NS24 Dhoby Ghaut.
053/054 would first return back into UPD when it was selected from TWD to do EWL Saturday Full Day Run 309 on 4/5/2024. Run 309 on Saturdays returns the train back into UPD after running for the whole day on EWL. This marks the return of 053/054 back into UPD since 053/054 actually got into UPD a few days ago, only for it to replace off 017/018 into UPD the following day and went back to EWL.
This time, 053/054 would actually make its way to do NSL Service after sleeping in UPD for the remainder of the weekend. Since it was doing this slot which does Yishun Bound, I had to hunt for it underground instead. This shall be making its last trip before returning back into BSD after withdrawing at Yishun Platform A.
Welcome back onto the tracks of NSL after spending 2 1/2 months on EWL. Note that 053/054 has the same Full-Interior Advert as 107/108, which is the SDIC. Motor on car 2054 A4/B4 seems to be working fine as well!
