=== Tseung Kwan O line stock ===
The first of the 104 TKE-C651 cars entered service on 26 April 2002. Originally, these trains were designated to serve on the [[Tseung Kwan O line]], but incompatible signalling apparatus installed in the new trains (running mode rather than the traditional automatic control system found in the [[MTR Metro Cammell EMU (DC)|M-stock]]) meant that all of the K-stock trains were initially unable to serve on the Tseung Kwan O line. As an alternative, all of those prototypes were ordered to serve on the [[Kwun Tong line]]. They have since been moved to the Tseung Kwan O line with the extension to [[LOHAS Park station|LOHAS Park]] in 2009 which made the [[Kwun Tong line]] only use the [[MTR Metro Cammell EMU (DC)|M-Train]]. Since the location of motor and trailer cars are different from the older M-Train, it does not have any cars similar to D cars in M-Train.
The K-Stock trains came under criticism when they were first put into service due to delays and door safety issues.<ref name="review0203legco">{{cite web
