The Korail Class 210000, also known as the EMU-150, is a South Korean higher-speed electrical multiple unit train manufactured by Hyundai Rotem and operated by Korail on ITX-Saemaeul services since 2014.[3]

History

[edit | edit source]

In 2011, Hyundai-Rotem and Korail signed an agreement for an order of 23 six-car units, with deliveries in 2014.[1]

On 15 October 2013, the first set was delivered to Korail.[citation needed]

The EMU-150 entered service in 2014 on ITX-Saemaeul limited-express services.[3]

Export variant

In 2021, an order of 10 8-car trainsets was received for an export variant for Tanzania as part of its Standard Gauge Railway, with the appearance resembling this model.[4] The trains are gradually delivered from 2024 onwards.[5][6]
