  feel like taking picture of how KL comuter take morning train

  they Q in-line @ platform

  wait for train to stop

  allow comuter to alight first then board train in Q manner

  this is some system our SGP need to learn from Kuala lumpur

  and that is like our NEL system without train driver.

  seldom see this in Singapore. especially when trains run so closely together during peak hours, the doors close very quickly. So everyone will try to push and squeeze into the poor train. This is a special trait of Singaporeans running in the blood...

  i took the kelana jaya line during PM peak hours last month while there on holiday, 15-18 dec.
  
  from the way i see it, it is a simple reason why they can have queues for the trains...
  
  the train is 3 carriages. but the station platform is meant for i think 5 or 6 carriages?
