refurbishing is in process....well i mean the exterior only...dey now paste the SMRT livery over the old greyish livery.... the insides is very clean nowadays with all the cleaning...Originally posted by SBS9889U:SMRT can buy newer trains or refurnish them. -
is it true they will convert the EWL and NSL to automatic driverless in (distant?) future. if so, means they has to get new trains?

when walking from NEL Outram Park toward EWL, the screen on the linkway can try to display the Pasir Ris/Boon Lay arrival time instead of just showing "To East West Line", which is obvious and redundant, given the number of colour signs there. Sometimes, the screen display the date and time, but i think it is really make more sense to display the EWL train arrival time. i dont think this is impossible, is just whether they wanna to do or not.
u know when walking from NEL to EWL, we can only see the SMRT screen when we turn right toward the escalator. seriously, if what is mention in the above cannot be done, maybe they should shift the current SMRT LED screen to somewhere behind the NEL LED screen, so that once people walk into the linkway, they can see the EWL arrival time. so that we can decides to walk slower or faster. if we reach the escalator then realise that the train just arrive, it is usu too late to catch it, so there isnt really much point putting the screen there.
same apply to dhoby ghaut station -

passengers who stand near the door are bodyguards of the door, servants, or slaves greeting their masters who is walking in?
and talking about MRT again, is there a ghost in the centre of the cabin (between the doors facing the seats) cos nobody dare to stand inside there but crowd near the doors..

There is a space linking 2 cars together where we can stand, but i realise if stand on this section inside NEL train, there will be squeaking sound when train is moving

Do u mean that the current trains can be used if they introduce automatic driverless system for NSL and EWL? -

regarding the NEL @ EWL and NSL.
Why not put more escalator like those at airportit will be a great help to elderly and those who are pregnant... etc. -
Dhoby Ghaut Interchange, put NSL train arrival time at NEL section and vice versa, same for Outram Park
