Having Doubts About The Efficiency of The SMRT.
-
My conversation with Nelstar this morning went sth like this, edited cos i can't remember what i msged him
:
late liao lar... i missed my train, n now got this stupid train coming but cannot board lei! duno why teh system so niao de. got empty train cannot board. stupid right? if they are gg to move in the same direction, why can't they let us board the train n have it terminate at amk or bishan? makes more sense right? like this waiting time n boarding time gets shorten, everybody will be happy mah? where got peak hours train move like snail liddat de compared to off peak hours?
If they are gg to let an empty train move like this, ppl see liao oso du lanz right?
at least make the hike worth it
If the trains are not coming like once every min, so be it. at least, dun let me see empty trains move pass me.. not like they're carryin any stuff u noe.. it's completely bare! empty! Put the trains to good use, n not let them just move like this. there are ppl running late. they see empty trains zoom pass while the next train takes 1-4 minutes to come. that makes a total of 2-8 minutes of waiting time for a single friggin train.

Well... Back then when govt build MRT, what was the population then compared to now?

How u noe that train havent been identified for immediate repairs and is being sent to the depot?
-
cos they're all travellin in the direction from marina bay to jurong...Originally posted by laurence82:How u noe that train havent been identified for immediate repairs and is being sent to the depot?
and they can't be for repairs, not if they're gg at roughly the same time every weekday... -
coz they noe ah shinta on the line, so they purposely do it?Originally posted by shinta:cos they're all travellin in the direction from marina bay to jurong...

this sucks u noe
if u miss the 1 boardable train, it's the equivalent of missing 2 boardable trains
den u'd see many many ppl on the platform.. when they all board... fill up to er.. let's just say, seats are all taken, half the space for ppl to stand's take up -

they wouldnt have enuff manpower or trains to run at the optimal frequency, enuff to allow u to have seats..... -
no seats nevermind... but it sucks havin to wait so damn friggin long for a friggin train.. a "Do Not Board" train comes after a boardable train leaves..Originally posted by laurence82:get used to it bah

i just feel that, they shouldn let an empty train move pass.. at least allow ppl to board n terminate at AMK or TPY whichever.. -
if the non boardable train is at Dover, and there is one train at next station at Clementi, cannot move right?Originally posted by shinta:no seats nevermind... but it sucks havin to wait so damn friggin long for a friggin train.. a "Do Not Board" train comes after a boardable train leaves..

They wouldnt want to get up close and personal, and second train wouldnt want to kiss the other guy's butt. -
