🚇 Regular use ➔ limited use! A compilation of M-train on the MTR Kwun Tong Line
Channel: SF's Rail Depot

This video was filmed between 2021 and 2023.
The MTR M-train (or the Modernisation Train) was made by Metro Cammell and was first introduced in 1979 when the initial section of the MTR first opened (now part of the Kwun Tong Line). The M-train was in production up until the 1990s. The train was refurbished from 1998 to 2001 to its current appearance. Now the trains are reaching 40 to 45 years old.

Since 2022, the new CRRC Q-train has begun slowly replacing the existing M-train. Replacement on the Kwun Tong Line was completed in late 2023. Therefore 2024/01/15, the M-train was withdrawn from the Kwun Tong Line from regular passenger service, although the M-train will still use the Kwun Tong Line for moving between different lines. Occasionally, M-train will service the Kwun Tong Line under special arrangements. From May to August 2024, M-train regularly served as the rush hour only train on the Kwun Tong Line again. The White Head Retro M-Train also served the Kwun Tong Line in late August 2024 before moving to other lines.

Soon, the M-train on the Island Line, Tsuen Wan Line and Tseung Kwan O Line will have the same fate and be replaced by Q-train. All M-train will be replaced by Q-train in 2028 or 2029, except for the Disneyland Resort Line M-train.

港鐵市區綫M-train（或稱為市區綫現代化列車）由英國都城嘉慕製造，並於1979年香港地鐵修正早期系統通車時投入服務（現為觀塘綫的一部份）。M-train一直生產至90年代，並於1998-2001年翻新成現在的模樣，現時M-train的車齡已經達到40-45年。

由2022年開始，由中車青島四方製造的Q-train逐漸開始取代M-train，首先替換的是行駛觀塘綫的M-train，已經在2023年尾完成。由2024年1月15日開始，M-train不會在觀塘綫上載客行駛，但仍然會不載客經觀塘綫前往其他路線或車廠。有時M-train會被臨時調派到觀塘綫上載客行駛，例如2024年農曆新年期間就發生過一次，其後在5-8月M-train間中在觀塘綫作為早上繁忙時間列車。白頭復古M-train也在8月尾短暫行駛觀塘綫，其後調動至其他路線。

在不久的將來，港島綫，荃灣綫及將軍澳綫的M-train將會被Q-train取代，所有市區綫的M-train會在2028-2029年內被全面取代，迪士尼綫的M-train除外。
