新加坡當地時間6月14日，新加坡陸路交通管理局授標中車四方股份聯合體新加坡跨島線項目車輛合同，聯合體由中車青島四方機車車輛股份有限公司和及其全資子公司-新加坡中車四方車輛服務有限公司組成。該項目將是中國軌道交通裝備企業在新加坡的首個全壽命周期項目。
新加坡跨島線項目車輛基礎合同44列6編組地鐵列車，還將包括11列車增購以及長期支持服務。列車預計將自2027年起逐步交付，2030年跨島線一期正式投入運營。
跨島線列車智能化程度高，為全自動駕駛列車。為加強運營和維護，列車將配置狀態監測和故障診斷系統，用於故障早期預測。部分列車還將配備自動軌道/架空導電軌檢測系統，用以實時監測。
與新加坡湯申-東海岸線列車相似，列車每輛車每側均設五個車門。為了提高車內的通過性能，較一般寬度為1.4米的列車貫通道，跨島線列車設計了更為寬大的1.6米貫通道。同時，項目採用1500伏直流架空導電軌供電，與典型的750伏直流三軌供電相比，能效大幅提升。
Purchase of 44 New Trains for the Cross Island Line
1 The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has awarded a contract for the supply of 44 six-car trains for the Cross Island Line (CRL) to the consortium of CRRC Qingdao Sifang Co., Ltd and Singapore CRRC Sifang Railway Vehicles Service Pte. Ltd (CRRC Sifang).
2 The contract, valued at $589 million, includes the option to procure up to 11 additional trains as well as the option for provision of Long-Term Service Support (LTSS). The new fleet of fully automated CRL trains will be wholly designed and manufactured by CRRC Sifang in Qingdao, China. The trains are expected to be delivered progressively from 2027, in time for commencement of CRL Phase 1 operations in 2030.
3 Similar to the trains for the Thomson-East Coast Line, each car on the new train will have five doors on each side. To improve accessibility within the train, the gangways between CRL train cars will be wider, at 1.6 metres compared to the 1.4 metres on our other train lines.
4 The new trains will be powered by a 1500V D.C. Overhead Conductor Rail (OCR) system, which will increase energy efficiency compared to a typical 750V D.C. third rail system. To enhance operations and maintenance, the CRL trains will include condition monitoring and diagnostic systems for early detection of potential equipment faults. Some trains will also be equipped with an Automated Track Inspection system to monitor the condition of the running rail and OCR in real time.
5 CRRC Sifang has previously supplied trains for Singapore’s North-South-East-West Line and Thomson-East Coast Line, through a consortium formed with Kawasaki Railcar Manufacturing. CRRC Sifang also has an established track record internationally, having supplied trains to Beijing, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Chicago and Sao Paulo.
6 The CRL is Singapore’s eighth MRT line. It will serve existing and future developments in the eastern, north-eastern and western corridors, linking major hubs such as Jurong Lake District, Punggol Digital District and Changi region. The CRL will have almost half of its stations as interchanges with other rail lines, making it easier and more convenient for commuters to travel across the rail network.
