The ban means cannot take photos and videos in MRT, due to the Orchard MRT Station suspected terrorist attack and Moscow subway bombings, for the sake of security reasons. We did not lift the ban yet. Apart from security to go normal, we still don't even bother to lift the ban and start taking photos and videos.
Videos for youyuan - 'No video until further notice' means will wait until June 10, 2010.
Videos for C751BLovur - Videos for Trains will be in Overhead Bridge View, not anywhere else.
Videos for willischong - Still can take.
Videos for jcqh1 - Still can take, but not uploading.
Jeremy Tan, not Jeremy Chang (Jtzq333).

For me, yes I will film at Overhead Bridge BUT I will wait until the SMRT SAY can take photo and video and no bombing in other country(ies). But I'm sure that they will NEVER announce this notice. If no more bombing next several years. I may be film by a notice given by some train fans, youyuan, willis and this thread may be lock in the future.

And who are you in the first place to ban people from taking photo / video? Are u even the moderator of SGF Trains? Or are you actually one of the staff? If neither, please dont talk <insert vulgar language here> stuffs and ...... (You know what I am gonna to say)
Do you know even know what a ban is, dude? Those who are not taking photos and videos are restraining themselevs at their own will, not because some SMRT staff chased them out of a station, confiscated their camera, and said they are not allowed to take. -_-

Well, the fact is if it is restraining themselevs at their own will then it should be people like C751BLovur, Willis_Chong, Jcqh, Ongyouyuan etc to announce themselves and not this TPS Timothy Mok, unless an authorization had made by these people (Apparently not)

TPS Timothy Mok is train enthusiast, commonly known as Timothy Woolwich (Facebook), NRIC name Timothy Mok Chuang Jie and Studying in Tampines Secondary School. Besides that, bans may be lifted by people. Timothy Mok sacrifices all friends (except Willis_Chong, C751BLovur, Jcqh, Ongyouyuan) to know when to lift the ban, but these exceptions take a long time to do and lift the ban, and no bombings other countries. People have just banned from taking photos and videos, due to their security threats coming on.
MRT system in Singapore is for the convenience of all passengers, can take picture or video, but not supposed to be terrorists and bomb the MRT system.

So you film more video then upload to youtube lor. If you get caught how? I take video of interior of train and one SMRT staff at the gangway saw me. He reported 4 polices and 1 CID. How should you feel?

That is becoz u r a noob. Must learn from me, <censored>. (As a saying, dont panic and everything will go smooth)
Originally posted by Samuel Lee:That is becoz u r a noob. Must learn from me, go depot still like bo tai chi except my IC is recorded and no police is called (And I even got a chance to meddle with C151 light, but nobody know it)
If I get caught again, I will be in the jail.
Originally posted by c751bLoVuR:If I get caught again, I will be in the jail.
No worries, it is not stated in Rapid Transit Act (It is not like u operate a train or what), so u cant be in jail. They just use scare tactics and u guys all down le. What a pity bunch of noobs and <......>
* Note: It is subjective and I got PMs that urge me not to say this way and reiterating of the seriousness...... whatever whatever. As I say, just be clam and nobody in either sides want to esclate it to court cases (And most of you guys are schooling child, and they are unlikely want to ruin your future)

the ban has been made temporarily by people due to security reasons, and bombings. LTA banned it without prior permission since Madrid bombings.
Banned dates:
Originally posted by TPS Timothy Mok:the ban has been made temporarily by people due to security reasons, and bombings. LTA banned it without prior permission since Madrid bombings.
Banned dates:
- 28 March 2010 - 9 April 2010: Probably due to Moscow subway bombings (Please read 'Refrain from taking photos and videos for now'.)
- 19 May 2010 - TBA: Due to the terrorists circled Orchard station (read earlier post).
I mean, I can understand the reason of these dates but what is this:
Videos for youyuan - 'No video until further notice' means will wait until June 10, 2010.
How you know he is going stop video until June 10, 2010? Why not June 20, 2010 (Or 19), and he then record NEL (NEL 7 years in service), or July 22, 2020 (Random dates.) etc?

+1 Positive. Because there is no rule for being taking pic and videos. Just don't act like a terrorist and suspicious looking-person. BUT better ask a permission before doing it. I may film (resume) again (terrorist attack at Orchard) 1 month later. Today I saw 4 person at City Hall MRT taking pictures:
1) "No Smoking, No Eating & Drinking, Flamable sign"
2) Taking photo of people
3) Someone taking picture of TRAIN! (Not train fans)
4) Station sign "NS25 City Hall"

youyuan reads the newspapers clearly. Once they lift the ban, discussion of existing photos and videos, will become Train Photos and Videos. June 1 - 20, all of this case, break for audio clips.

According to a forumer who claimed to have relatives work as station manager, told him that such things are not allowed at all with the relevant procedures, IF no permissions was asked before hand. Kind of such things is 100% depends on the staff there, and not blaming the policeman, LTA or the head of SMRT. (So the rule is apart of play by owner's rule, it is more on self-restrain as well)
Quote from him:
"
you are at a person's house, do you go around, walk here walk there, touch here touch there at your own will?
would you like it?
same goes to smrt
you are their place
you play by their rules, not the ACTS of the RTS
"
Note: Corrected. (Maybe some awareness campaign should be made, so that it relieves certain people's worry on such videos / photos are easily available on the net which poses security threat, and at the same time, people will have no excuse / reason to defy the staffs since people at the same time, usually feel shocked and unhappy as well when encounter such issue. So kind of killing 2 birds in a stone.)
While during this tight security, however, when I asked the CSOs, Service Ambassadors and even TOs for permission to take pics and film trains, they did not say "No, you can't!". Instead, some say "Go ahead!" or some even smiled at me.

I think you look young so they said can.. If 30 years + you try ask CSOs, I don't think they will let 30+ taking pic and film.

Nobody said LTA banned the people, and LTA did not ban anyone, it was YOU who started this banning thing and which I, as another train enthu, can just heck care all these thingy and anyhow film as I want, only to NOT SAY that someone instructed me to film and upload it on a specific date.
If my Engrish/Singlish is too horrible, in simple terms: I don't care.
