SPAD will not compromise on safety of trains


Sneak preview: The ETS201 being shown to the media at Batu Gajah, after clocking more than 6,600km of fault-free test run.

BATU GAJAH: The Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) will not compromise when it comes to assessing the reliability, safety and comfort of the 10 ETS trainsets bought from China.

It is compelled to adopt this stance given that these trains, made by CSR Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Ltd for intercity passenger services, can easily hit 145kph on a track designed for 160kph, making them the fastest trains in the country.
