How many trains terminate at AMK from JUR during post-peak period?
Heng heng i tio once each peak today.. around 1015 and 2015 reach AMK then off to BSD...
-
yup, it will come anytime. But is nothing special. AMK trains are no difference from a typical DNB train, just that it is lazy to turnabout at Marina due to the distance

It would be something special when it comes to the scheduling point of view as it indicates how many trains keep at each depot after each peak period and what runs they do to keep at the appropriate depot.. -
"S" shift trains.

Can someone tell me where i can know the depths of underground MRT stations? I see that people know Newton is around 12m deep, Novena 11m but how about the rest on the NEL, CCL, NSL and EWL?
anybody got any sources to share?

Uh, quite difficult to measure leh... unless you got the blueprint =P
You go measure or what? =P

Does anyone has any idea what is the departure time for the first and last EWL through train at Marina Bay?

If I am not wrong, wikipedia has this sources. Take a look at it, however I do not recommend it most of the time as this sources can be edited by anyone.

More like;
Marina Bay -----> Jurong East ------> Pasir Ris
I would like to have the exact time, not a range of time. Thanks in advance

Now Tampines and Simei also have PSDs on the ceiling ar? Can become full-height platform screen doors liao! Add Air-con!

Save the environment, go green, save costs too. So no chance of air-con.

Misters (i.e. Long House at Upper Thomson Road) have seemed like a good idea to me, although I don't know how some might feel about wet fog in their faces. Air-conditioning in stations that aren't fully-enclosed? Forget about it. This is SMRT we're talking about here, folks.

SMRT - Cut Cost - Everything also cheaper better faster - Possible to add air-con - rather have naturally ventilated. Ahh I get it already

Question with regards to CCL:
can the trains go any faster? for most of the journey for all 3 stages, the trains feel like they're going at 50kmh or below... apart from the crazy promenade bend of course, can't the trains go fast up to 80kmh at least? its a real bore sitting through slow CCL rides!
trains also pull in at rather slow speeds as most of you guys have noticed too!
Is it possible for Alstom trains to be programmed to speed into stations just like those on NSL and EWL?

erm...you want the train to speed into the station and overrun by a train's length?

Actually, the section between Nicoll Highway and Stadium, it's travelling at ~75km/h already.

Lol, then Dhoby Ghaut ->>> Bras Basah.
SIAO MAN! After crossover decelerate to 50km/h. You go to the front of the train.
Depart from DBG pretend very fast, after crossover, go damn slow.

Nvm, skip station better. At least I don't need to give up my seat unnecessarily

Actually, its SMRT fault thats why the C830s are so slow. You see C751As enter the train at high speed but don't overrun. CCL they enter slightly slower at 60km/h compared to C751A which is around 80km/h.
Slower trains -> Lesser electricity consumed -> Lower operating cost -> Win-win for operator
