21/1/2008 - Train Disruptions on EWL?
-
Heard that there was a train disruption along the EWL (between Tanah Merah & Pasir Ris) this morning...
-
the disruptions was caused by a maintenance train that broke down...
-
Hmmm are the trains back up and running?
I'm taking my time at home right now
-
the train at simei mrt that I've mentioned has moved but I still don't see any commuters at the mrt station yetOriginally posted by elindra:Hmmm are the trains back up and running?

Moved liao?
Ok good bye bye I'm going off soon
Need to go get ready
I'm too lazy to open the window to see though I can see the tracks from my place -
Second time this year liao
Only know how to increase fare, never know how to imporve service. -
several SMRT buses (SMRT Shuttles) were spotted along Simei Street 3 to ferry affected commuters
-
Train services resumed at 0900hrs but only the track from Boon Lay - Pasir Ris was in use therefore trains heading to Boon Lay from Pasir Ris were using this track & the other track (Pasir Ris - Boon Lay) remained closed
-
got free transport y complain
-
wonderfool start to a new werk week
-
this week LTA's gg say sth about rail industry. will there bbe higher fines?
-
higher fines = higher fares in the long term

1st thing that came to alot of ppl's mind was "wtf?? who so early duwan to sleep duwan to go work?? so early jump??"
-
haha, yeah & that's what I thought so at 1st too but in the end, it was a maintenance train that broke down as stated in my earlier postOriginally posted by aHGer^83:1st thing that came to alot of ppl's mind was "wtf?? who so early duwan to sleep duwan to go work?? so early jump??" -
I was at Bedok Station around 8:35am. Noticed that the train towards Pasir Ris was not moving but many passengers were still inside. What were they waiting for?
-
Till now, the track towards Boon Lay is still not in operation...perhaps the train was waiting to do a "turn around" service at Tanah Merah IntOriginally posted by epr0mlse:I was at Bedok Station around 8:35am.

i doubt the broken down maintenance train has not been removed coz the track towards boon lay still remained closedOriginally posted by ^tamago^:on 007/008 eastbound. stopped a minute at kallang and aljunied, 4 minutes at kembangan, now arriving at bedok. madness. heng off-peak liao. -
actually now i dun really believe in "maintenance" of trains any more...Originally posted by SMRT Buses:haha, yeah & that's what I thought so at 1st too but in the end, it was a maintenance train that broke down as stated in my earlier post
fares gg up, n u do maintenance during peak hrs??
if the train really got prob, den ok...
but i still think "maintenance" is just an excuse for someone else's suicide....
just my opinion lah... -
1 train will always be stuck between BDK and TNM eastbound. pax load out of TNM WB is quite high. stopped another 4 minutes at BDK, likely will spend just as long between thfe 2 stations.
-
body kena stuck??Originally posted by SMRT Buses:i doubt the broken down maintenance train has not been removed coz the track towards boon lay still remained closed -
suicide should be faster than this. i believed the maintenance train was stuck since last night. heads gonna roll man.

I assumed it was since yesterday night as the radio reported that the 1st train at about 5+ was already affecting train servicesOriginally posted by ^tamago^:suicide should be faster than this. i believed the maintenance train was stuck since last night. heads gonna roll man.
