context_page_description: The Kawasaki Heavy Industries & Nippon Sharyo C751B, sometimes abbreviated to C751B or KNS C751B is the third generation electric multiple unit rolling stock in operation on the North South and East West Lines of Singapore's Mass Rapid Transit system since early 2000. 21 trainsets of 6 cars each were purchased at S$231 million, and it is the first rolling stock to feature VVVF insulated-gate bipolar transistor traction control system. Kawasaki Heavy Industries manufactured 66 cars and Nippon Sharyo manufactured 60 cars respectively with no comparable differences, having built to agreed specifications. These trains are the third generation of rolling stock to be used on the two lines. All 21 of these trains are permanently operating on the East West Line, with a few running on the North South Line.
