I wounld like to thanks the organiser for the tour.
I would also like to thank youyuan as he helped me ask a question on the SWT on the CCL. According to them, the reason for not putting up the terminating annoucement in the station and trains due to some design fault, but they are working on it and it should be up by end July. Also, when stage 4 and 5 opens, the SWT will extend to one-north which have a middle platform(according to them).

would like to thank the organisers as well as SMRT for giving us the chance to have a closer look into what goes behind the operations of our rail lines!
from what I heard, the SWT will extend to one-north yes, but I dont think it is a middle platform but a turn back siding. they werent very clear on that so I am not too sure myself

I'm really grateful to those who have made this tour a success. I extend my utmost thanks to the proposers and the SMRT staff who guided us through the tour. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you all so much.

Dear all,
We hope you guys enjoyed the Depot Tour organised by SMRT Trains. We hope that you have learnt alot of things during the tour although there are some time constraints.
As part of Friends of SMRT, you may want to help SMRT improve their services by giving them constructive feedbacks or suggestions. I am really sure they will take all of this into consideration.
As the organiser of this tour, I would like to thank SMRT Trains for letting us have this depot tour, although many of you expected the NSL/EWL depot tour. Without the assistance of SMRT, we wouldn't be able to organise a depot tour.
Please stay tune for any new events coming up.
Thank you,
Organisers. -

If you see at the artist impression of one-north, you can see that there is a hint on the middle platform. -

Ok, as I today had went to One-North / Kent Ridge, I can assure you that between them got a place called: Temporarily Staging Area (TSA) and one aspect of C830 is to do with with C830 TAS-ONR (ONR = One-North)
From what I have deduced, it would probably mean a Stadium - Mountbatten style and not a Paya Lebar station style with the following reasons:
1: Where else can trains in Buona Vista / One North extend if there is a middle platform? The Paya Lebar is possible is because it was meant to connect the "interchange-less" Eastern Region Line.
2: One North has only 2 exits, with a rectangle shape (Instead of a "T" shaped)
3: If you recap, if the Circle Line opens in order (Stage 1 to be the first opened), then the trains in terms of HBF bound will first terminate at Stadium then proceed to middle track and return. It is the same for Stage 2, except that it is not a middle track but a split track in Tai Seng (For Stage 1 case can refer to Outram Park LTE and Stage 2 case can refer to Bartley bound trains before CCL 1 and 2 opens, in case you failed to get a DNB on CCLD which many does as the trains' doors was closing too fast.). Stage 3 case, is present day Marymount terminus, and hence, in terms of logical order, Stage 4 terminus which is Kent Ridge, should be similar to Stage 3 (Crossover BEFORE station instead of after).

So sorry bro, I forgot to ask them. Need not worry, I'm emailing them something, so I will ask about it again.
Very very sorry again.
