MTR Phase IV LRV

"Phase IV LRV" is a colloquial name used to describe a set of twenty light rail vehicles operated by the MTR Corporation on the Hong Kong Mass Transit Railway Light Rail system since December 2009.
==History==
The Phase IV LRV is the fourth generation of rolling stock operated on the Hong Kong Light Rail system. A total of twenty-two cars were jointly constructed by CSR Nanjing Puzhen and UGL Rail under contract KRS999. As a result these are often named KRS999, UGL Cars or UGL-CSR Puzhen Cars. These were the first light rail vehicles to be ordered by the MTR Corporation after their merger with the Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation in 2007.
The train's design was overseen by UGL Rail while CSR Nanjing Puzhen is responsible for production, assembly and debugging. The cars entered service on 14 December 2009. When not in service, the trains are stationed at Tuen Mun depot. During busier periods up to two cars are coupled together.
==Design==
The Phase IV LRVs feature a boxy design with a painted white body. The cars feature multicolored stripes in a wavy formation on their sides and a red stripe on the top. The front of the cars feature an orange LED display with the destination and the route number; a small orange display below the destination display displays the train running number.
==Specifications==
Construction of the sets is of stainless steel with fiberglass cabs. The sets use Mitsubishi MAP-122-75V67A 3-level IGBT variable frequency drives; these power Mitsubishi three-phase traction motors. The sets ride on Siemens bogies.
