Each compartment1 of the new stainless2 steel subway trains is 19 meter long and 2.8 meter wide, with a loading capacity of 1,820 people. Trains run on the No. 1 line have darker red floor and brighter yellow seats. While trains that run on the No. 2 line have light blue floor and blue seats.

 

The subway trains are also equipped with Liquid Crystal Display, or LCD monitors which will carry live on-board news broadcasts and subway information. Passengers will be able to watch sports competitions via these LCDs during the upcoming 2008 Olympic Games.
