Yes it's a K set. C sets have a different look on the front car and have chopper control (hence they sound like Tangaras) and this train clearly does not have chopper control. So its a K SET!! But I wonder why they replaced some of the glued windows with solid glass. The glued windows certainly looked great on them
I used to visit the Parramatta station twice a day going to and from school. During the years 1972-1976. Having left Australia 30 years ago, it's very nice to see the place I have passed through, after a long time. Otherwise I would have no chance to this place. Istanbul is at such a long distance.
I'm surprised whoever recorded this video wasn't arrested on suspected terrorism charges.If I saw it happen I would be concerned!Lucky I don't catch trains anymore,LOL
It's a C set, not a K set. K sets are R sets except they have air conditioning and as a result their windows a 'glued' shut, the C set however has non opening windows from when it was built.
Then why does it have replaced windows that don't open? Look at the cityrail website and you'll find that K sets have windows that have been glued shut.
All "K" set cars were force ventilated until the late 1980s when the second batch (C3551/T4217C3580/T4246) was fitted with air conditioning, this included the replacement of the "beclawat" windows with sealed non opening windows (as on this vid).
The first batch was finally fitted with air conditioning just prior to the Sydney 2000 Olympics. However, these cars retained the "hopper" windows from its "Citydecker" refurbishment, but were sealed shut with an adhesive to avoid the loss of air conditioning.
a C set has a fibreglass moulding over the front of the drivers cab, they also sound like Tangaras, as the others are saying, thats a Definite K set

Its definitely a K-set , K-sets' front is flat but C-sets front is slightly caved in at the windows , if you know what i mean

No it is a K-set. Have a look at the front car it is clearly a K-set and if you look hard enough this train has a black target plate.
