Along side with the SG2/1 the MG2/1 was the third type of passenger rolling stock on the metro system of Rotterdam. The MG2/1 is almost identical to the SG2/1 with only a few visual as well as technical differences. The trains were built between 1997 and 2001, and like the MG2 always limited to the D-section of the North-south line and the C-section of the East-west line due to the lack of pantographs for overhead wire. Thus the trains are equipped with third rail shoes only. The fleet consists of 63 sets.
