The six trains, which have scaled the factory acceptance test hurdle, are scheduled for shipment to Lagos from China.
The addition of the train sets to the Blue Line rolling stock will increase the number of train trips along the corridor and will be deployed for passenger operation to Okokomaiko when phase two of the Blue Line is completed.
It is projected that the construction of phase two from Mile 2 to Okokomaiko, about 14 kilometres in length, will be completed within the first quarter of 2027 and passenger operations extended to Okokomaiko shortly after.
