The '''Class 92''' is a type of [[electric multiple unit]] operated by [[Keretapi Tanah Melayu]] on its [[KTM Komuter]] services. A total of 38 sets were built by [[CRRC Zhuzhou Locomotive|CSR Zhuzhou]] of China, in 6-car formations.<ref>{{cite news|last=Lee|first=Patrick|title=Why all roads lead to Klang Valley|url=http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/2011/08/31/why-all-roads-lead-to-klang-valley/|access-date=24 September 2011|newspaper=Free Malaysia Today|date=August 31, 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110909043943/http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/2011/08/31/why-all-roads-lead-to-klang-valley/|archive-date=9 September 2011}}</ref>

== History ==
The Class 92 was procured under a Malaysian Government initiative,  National Key Result Area (NKRA) to reduce congestion and improve public transport with a specific RM2 billion allocation to KTMB to improve commuter rail efficiency. A sum of RM 1.894 billion was spent to procure these trains, with the remainder being spent on the improvement of signaling along the Putra-Mid Valley stretch and a ticketing system upgrade.<ref name="mot1">{{cite web|url=http://www.mot.gov.my/en/NKRA/Pages/NKRA.aspx|title=NKRA Urban Public Transport|last=Ministry of Transport|publisher=MOT|access-date=3 August 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120711083036/http://www.mot.gov.my/en/NKRA/Pages/NKRA.aspx|archive-date=11 July 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The first EMU was delivered on 23 September 2011 and was expected to operate in revenue service by late December 2011. However, delays in testing led to the subsequent postponement of launch. On 8 March 2012, 4 sets commenced operation. All 38 sets were in revenue service by July 2012.<ref name="star92311">{{cite news|url=http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2011/9/23/nation/9559899&sec=nation|title=KTM gets first batch of electric train coaches from China|date=September 23, 2011|newspaper=The Star|access-date=24 September 2011}}</ref><ref name="star311">{{cite news|url=http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2011/11/3/nation/9829390&sec=nation|title=Two sets of EMU trains being tested|last=Kaur|first=Manjit|date=November 3, 2011|newspaper=TheStarOnline|access-date=3 November 2011}}</ref> 

== Features ==
Designed for low dwell times and high passenger seating capacity, the trains have three double leaf doors per side. The driving motors have longitudinal seating only while the trailer feature a mixture of longitudinal and traverse 2+2 seating. It has wide gang-ways interconnecting each coach, allowing passengers to distribute effectively throughout the length of the train. However, two middle coaches of the class 92 is designated women's only coaches by its operator KTM, limiting full interactivity within the train set. Dynamic route maps located above doors details trains position relative to station in real-time. CCTVs and 3-pin power outlets are provided as further features. All trains have over-head air-conditioning systems to provide ventilation, dehumidification and comfortable temperature control.<ref name="SMT">{{cite web|url=http://www.siemens.com/press/pool/de/pressemitteilungen/2010/mobility/IMO201011008e.pdf|title=Siemens upgrades mass transit system in Kuala Lumpur|work=Siemens.com|publisher=Siemens|access-date=25 September 2011}}</ref>

==Operation==
The Class 92 operates along the two Komuter lines in the Central Sector. During current 15-minute frequency operations, as many as 25 class 92 sets are used while the remaining sets are kept in reserve. In the future (10-minute frequency operations), it is expected for the total maximum of concurrently used sets to increase to 36 with 2 to remain in reserve.

===Special service===
During festivities, the KTM Class 92 is used for special services. Special services typically occur during occasions such as the "[[Balik Kampung|homecoming]]" exodus, saw class 92 sets operating intercity routes, such as the KL Sentral-Ipoh route complementing the [[ETS Line|ETS train service]]. In other festivities, such as the festival of Thaipusam, the class 92 also provides service from Ipoh direct to Batu Caves.

===Maintenance and Depot===
The Class 92 sets is maintained by its manufacturer CSR Zhuzhou. The maintenance facility will be based mainly at KTM’s Sentul Komuter Depot while a minor secondary base is located at Tanjung Malim.<ref name=red1>{{cite web|title=南车株机造中国首个城际动车组4S店在吉隆坡开业|url=http://hn.rednet.cn/c/2012/02/23/2525976.htm|work=Rednet.cn|publisher=RedNet|language=Chinese|access-date=4 March 2012|quote=the main base in Kuala Lumpur Sentul depot, sub-base is located in Perak, the Tanjong Malim}}</ref> 

On top of all that, a new special {{convert|16.34|ha|acre|lk=in|sigfig=2}} commuter maintenance depot is being built (completion by Sept 2013) in the vicinity of Seremban station to house the class 92. The depot will have a capacity of stabling 19 six coach Class 92 sets and be able to conduct simultaneous maintenance work on up to 6 sets of commuter trains. The depot will also have up to 15 tracks of {{Cvt|6|km}} each to store and maintain trains. The depot will also stage other Rawang-Seremban line rolling stocks.<ref name=mm1>{{cite web|last=Randal|first=Simon|title=Commuter train maintenance depot {{as written| to bui|lt [sic]|expecting=to be built}} in Seremban|url=http://www.mmail.com.my/story/commuter-train-maintenance-depot-built-seremban|work=The Malay Mail|publisher=MalayMail|access-date=8 July 2012|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130221102249/http://www.mmail.com.my/story/commuter-train-maintenance-depot-built-seremban|archive-date=21 February 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==Corruption investigation==
The purchase of the KTM class 92 was notably under investigation by the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) over its tender process. In 2008, the Chinese railway manufacturer Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co Ltd, being the lowest bidder, was originally awarded the tender to build 3 car sets at the cost of RM 13.7 million. This figure later increased to RM 48 million per 6 car set. According to the details revealed to the press about the investigation, the re-negotiation process was held directly with the manufacturer and there was certain irregularities in pricing. The investigation is still on-going.<ref name=star2>{{cite news|last=Charles, Lourdes|title=MACC probes purchase of Electric Multiple Units|url=http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2010/8/6/nation/6810125&sec=nation|access-date=8 March 2012|newspaper=The Star Online|date=6 August 2010}}</ref><ref name=zulk1>{{cite web|last=Dzhulkefly|first=Ahmad|title=PAC wants MACC to investigate purchase of KTMB trains.|date=4 August 2010|url=http://blog.drdzul.com/2010/08/04/pac-wants-macc-to-investigate-purchase-of-ktmb-trains/|access-date=8 March 2012}}</ref><ref name=fmt1>{{cite news|last=Maria|first=Stephannie|title=EMU train ready, MACC still lingering|url=http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/2011/07/18/emu-train-ready-macc-still-lingering/|access-date=8 March 2012|newspaper=Free Malaysia Today|date=18 July 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120303054047/http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/2011/07/18/emu-train-ready-macc-still-lingering/|archive-date=3 March 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>

== Operational issues ==
There has been a number of issues related to the Class 92. In a comment by KTMB's incumbent president, Elias Kadir has noted that the class 92 is "not up to standard".<ref name=btimes1>{{cite web|last=Kauer|first=Shauren|title=KTMB's revival on shaky tracks?|url=http://www.btimes.com.my/Current_News/BTIMES/articles/20120802001831/Article/index_html#ixzz22JrbYdtP|work=BusinessTimes|publisher=btimes.com.my|access-date=3 August 2012}}</ref> In other related incidents, in which Class 92 sets malfunctioned was due reportedly to poor maintenance and non-payment to suppliers.<ref name=btimes1 />

Poor fleet management has led to many KTM Class 92 sets to have gone without routine maintenance, thus leading to a void in manufacturer warranty. According to the Auditor-General’s Report, The sum of RM99.94 million paid by the Railway Assets Corporation (RAC) to CSR Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co Limited to service the six-car Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) cannot be reimbursed due to KTMB's failure in its part of sending the trains for necessary maintenance.<ref name=rkypt.6.8.14>{{cite news|last1=Augustine|first1=Sean|title=Warranty can be affected if trains not serviced |url=http://www.therakyatpost.com/news/2014/06/17/warranty-can-affected-trains-serviced/#ixzz39bCBdXoq|access-date=6 August 2014|publisher=Rakyat Post|date=Jun 17, 2014}}</ref>

==Launch delays==
The premature decay in KTM class 8X circa 2006-2012, led to a public outcry for new commuter rolling stock. Hence, there was a need for a fast-tracked tender of new trains in order to meet the rising rail passenger demand.

Originally the first set was expected to be launched in December 2011,<ref name=star92311 /> it was later delayed to January<ref name=sun1>{{cite news|last=Sivanandam|first=Hemananthani|title=First set of EMU six-car trains to run in January|url=http://www.thesundaily.my/news/244801|access-date=5 March 2012|newspaper=theSunDaily|date=21 December 2011}}</ref>  and then February 2012.<ref name=nst1>{{cite web|title=KTMB's commuter service gets a boost|url=http://www.nst.com.my/top-news/ktmb-s-commuter-service-gets-a-boost-1.24404#ixzz1hjtjk4yh|work=New Straits Times|publisher=NST|access-date=4 March 2012}}</ref> The eventual launch date for Class 92 took place on March 8, 2012.<ref name=star1>{{cite web|last=Adnan|first=Amimudin|title=Steps being taken to improve KTM service|url=http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2012/2/23/focus/10787054&sec=focus|work=The Star Online|access-date=4 March 2012}}</ref>
