[The Train Which Travelled The World Before Entering Svc][TRTC] C301 (007/008) from Qilian to Beitou

Recorded on 2 March 2026 -Train Details C301 (007/008) Build By: Kawasaki Heavy Industries & Union Rail Car Partnership Year Build: 1992 → 1994 Year Entered Service: 1997 Year Refurbished: 2011 → 2019 Traction Control: IGBT-VVVF (Bombardier MITRAC TC1410) Train Number: 102 Destination: Tamsui The C301 trains are nicknamed “The Train Which Travelled The World Before Entering Service” as they were manufactured in Japan and the United States. The car body shells were first manufactured at the Kawasaki Hyōgō Works in Kōbe Japan before being shipped to the Kawasaki Yorkers Plant in New York United States where their final assembly by Union Rail Car Partnership(URC) was done. Once the trains were fully assembled and commissioned, they were shipped to Taipei and entered service in 1997. This production arrangement was influenced by the United States–Taiwan trade tensions during the 1980s and early 1990s, when Taiwan held a significant trade surplus with the United States. Under pressure related to Section 301 of the Trade Act, Taiwan increased purchases of American-made goods. Final assembly in the United States allowed the C301 trains to qualify as American products, contributing to trade balance efforts. Follow me on Instagram:   / singapore_trains_channel
