  Station, at the platform. From the platform (towards CCK) , if you look across to the opposite platform (towards Fajar) you can see it.

  LRT won't kill de. Too slow liao but if you touch the 3rd rail, good luck. The weight of the LRT could just kill you instantly. Its over 10 tons. They should install =P. Anyway you can press the ESP in less than 10 seconds if you run. =P. It takes like 10 seconds to enter the station?

  That one not suicide, its laziness =P

   

  Uhh... IDK. Maybe he got hit and landed on the third rail and got run over by the train? Who knows? =P

   SKG/PGLRT have fences at the HW to prevent people from jumping at the tracks when it is accelerating =P.

   

  Only PTC/STC don't have, because always got staff press ESP.

  for me:
  
  40% Yes maybe they build Underground LRT after they complete Jurong Lake District,  
  
  40% No, they will not make any LRT line at jurong
  
  20% Confused..
