This is called a ballast tamper or tamping machine. It is used to pack the ballast under the tracks to make it more durable.

Now laying wires along the tracks...

Still waiting for the metals rails to come, so some parts of the tracks use single rail for fixing the wirings & the machines to carrying loads to different parts of the tracks...
Currently on parts of the tracks have a pair of rails.

The tender for Joo Koon Terminal is out. It should be able to support a maximum of 7 bus services.
It is likely the buses will use this as a bus park to lay by and serve the new MRT station 250 metres out. Boarding and alighting may not be allowed.
Credits to JediAlf for the find.

Boarding and alighting not allowed, no alighting berth. Buses would start and end trip at JKN station.

The boon lay extension line is to open earlier than expected. Good news for the residents living near there.

Me! Anyway that day I saw a train along the tracks... I don't know why. It definitely overshot Boon Lay but I don't know why it was stationary.

And bad news to those who are living next to the track.

It needs extra money and time to do so, and the current timber sleepers can still use for several years more.
