Although, the biggest part of the modernization works is suffering delays since the initial prediction of completion was exceeded in 2012 and, because of that, the Company has been withdrawing the old stock (trains prior to 1998) gradually. The trains are identified by serial numbers and they are with your visual communication being updated to the new red pattern in so far as they undergo into general review, which occurs after a certain mileage. Older trains already passed by several visual modifications, internal and external, besides small, medium and large reforms.
