MRT7 Has 36 Korean-made Train Sets W/ 3 Cars Each

MRT-7 – The MRT 7, part of the P8-trillion infrastructure program of the President Rodrigo Duterte, will run 36 Korean-made trains set with 3 cars each.

New Manila Metro Rail Transit System Line 3 or MRT-3 rails from Japan arrived in the Harbour Centre Port Terminal Inc. in Manila last July 10.

The Bureau of Customs were the ones who waited for the shipments at the port and said the rehabilitation project will start before 2019 ends.

Meanwhile, Senator Grace Poe complained about the show rehabilitation of the train. She also asked why the P22 billion budget was not enough to fix the glitches immediately.

“Pag hindi tumirik, umuusok o tumutulo… hindi pa ba sapat ang tatlong taon para maisaayos ang problema?” she said.

Meanwhile, photos of the MRT-7 train, which is also part of the P8-trillion infrastructure program of President Duterte’s administration was posted on the internet.
