Due to the form application issue (Nothing to do SGF), I have to leave early.
BTW, I have told Shaun prior to my departure.

Sigh, 真走�。
Well, I dont have the device to do recordings / photography, so maybe you will do that. (Maybe I can help to do it stealthly --- thats all --- now I lack of infrastructure)

Paya Lebar middle track? -- No. CCL set XXX --- no.
By the way, I have asked the tour guide on the Ang Mo Kio middle track and on the LTG that depicts the network of MRT / LRT and bus stops where the Punggol side got a overrun that connects to Nibong LRT (PW5) --- where I asked for the possibility of a MRT line connecting Changi Airport, Pasir Ris, Punggol all the way to the Sembawang.
Well, heres the answer:
For the Ang Mo Kio's Kallang Line that goes to Kallang area (With the point on the map) --- she replied to me if that was such a need. (So the reason why the middle track / Kallang Line never built was still 'stick with official position' of 'Lack of demands'.)
For the NEL connecting to Nibong, well, she brushed that off as an error, or really got such possibility. -- In other words, she means not sure.
Well, she mentioned to me and the group to consolidate every feedbacks and questions together. Coz, other people are asking some other questions, with notable ones are "Whos the operator of DTL", "CHY announcements sucks as there is a purpose accent" and I even overwhelmed questions like why did the mockup C951 does not show the controls (And she said the train was automatic, so no need control --- WTH! Heard of CM?)
Anyway, in short, tour guide is not the god of everything and hence I will post my feedbacks and my planning of Singapore RTS 2040. (Yes -- 2040, some of the ideas might be a bit insane)

Question #146 (I doubt it's the first question): CCL, last set to be delivered to Singapore is what?
Question #147: Middle platform of Paya Lebar CCL, can it extend down, if it can't, why?
-
Question 1: Will the provision tunnel in Punggol means that if Punggol really got the North Coast / Shore Line, it will be another overhead cantry system, prefably 6 cars formation, so that the NEL trains can extend itself.
Question 2: Is my speculation on the http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2080/topics/391491?page=7 correct? (On the post with a title: Do you know that why DTL Stage 3 is delayed like mad and why Kallang Line was never materialized.)
Question 3: Why cant the LTA built an underground linkway from Bukit Panjang LRT to Bukit Panjang MRT station with the flexibility of closing 2 lifts at a time (1 from each side platform) so that to extend the lift to serve the underground linkway as well. In this way, they can no need to demolish / alter any of the station positioning. I personally find that the distance between Bukit Panjang MRT and LRT station is no longer than one in Outram Park / Dhoby Ghaut. So whats the problem here? This especially when the LTA Engineers have a mission to consider things in commuter point of view.
Question 4: Since the Ten Mile Junction has a lack of integrated hub, which is a model that the authorities took on, coupled with current non-integrated interchange of BPJ MRT / LRT further strained by the error prone Bukit Panjang LRT system that has long abandoned by the Changi Skytrain (And SMRT / SLRT did not EVEN go and use those Changi Skytrain in order to boost their frequencies), does that this hint in the long term point of view, Bukit Panjang LRT will be scrapped and probably rebuilt with the consideration of the location where Bukit Panjang MRT is located (Prefably a 13 LRT stations, minus Ten Mile Junction, where the rebuilt-ed Bukit Panjang LRT station can serve as between the bus interchange and Ten Mile Junction (Just above Bukit Panjang MRT)
Question 5: How does the LTA come up with the contract numbers. Because this contract related to Marina Costal Expressway was a C48X while North East Line related contracts, despite was awarded way earlier, had a number of C75X (With the famous of C751A)
Question 6: I am one of the BVE developer, I would like to represent the entire BVE Singapore to ask for LTA identity font so as to design the signboard etc found in the MRT stations.
Question 7: Since LTA 1996 Whitepaper, which can be found on http://www.lta.gov.sg/corp_info/doc/white%20paper.pdf (Dont bother to remove it, I have save a hard copy already), is there any newer / updated version to it? (Or was that evolved to MasterPlan etc)
Feedback 1: Please, in the mock train, give us have a glimsp of the control, and please tell your staff that all the automatic trains (CBTC such as C751A, C830, C951 trains etc) do have the controls in the head of the trains. It is called CM mode.
Feedback 2: I find that Eastern Region Line is too isolated, as a resident in Marine Parade areas, I would like to suggest for Circle Line in Paya Lebar middle track could have extended into one of the Eastern Region Line station, prefably in Marine Parade / Tanjong Katong. As an additional bonus, the DT27 could have built in the form of CTH / RFP style or Rochor style instead of a middle track such that the residents from Bedok Resevoir could have went to Bedok South with a MRT line. The advantage will be avoiding the need of another "JEMP" in future. (See the point on my Question 2)
