The MTR CRRC Changchun EMU, also known as the TML C-train or by its stock bid number 1141A, is a model of heavy rail electric multiple unit used on the Mass Transit Railway in Hong Kong. The eight-car sets were manufactured by Changchun Railway Vehicles for the East West Corridor, now the Tuen Ma Line, where they run alongside the extended SP1900 sets. Because their outside appearance resembles the SP1900, they are nicknamed the pseudo-SP1900, and they wear the same livery as the R-trains, S-trains and Q-trains of other MTR lines. Inside, seats are grouped in threes between doorways rather than fours, and 22-inch LCD screens replace the older 15-inch ones. The bid was won by the Changchun company in December 2013 for 1.38 billion Hong Kong dollars, originally for 14 trains and later raised to 17. The first set entered service on the Ma On Shan line in March 2017, and all 17 trains now run the whole Tuen Ma Line, which fully opened on 27 June 2021.
