But before doors are closing there is a chime first as warning, while NEL's doors closing has no chime before it. so once pple hear the chime they should take it as doors are definitely closing immed, unlike EW/NS line there are drivers who can still wait or reopen the doors but CCL not possible. however, smrt can adjust the time accordingly
How about NEL? So I can say the CCL not as pro as NEL. (I mean after kiapped people)

Just want to comment on something. The doors closes too fast for the Circle Line. Once the annoucement '' Doors are closing '' is made, fewer buzzer sound was made as compared to the trains on the EW and NS line. And then, the doors just close. There's no waiting time. Imagine peak hour everyone struggling to get in and then '' doors are closing '' and then door close. sure people trap de. SMRT must do something about this -.-
NEL is worse.
"Doors Closing titi*doors starts to close*tititititititititititititititi"But the Door Closing for the Circle Line are modified for some trains such that:
"Ding dong.... Doors are Closing titititititititi *doors starts to close*" -

passengers are already supposed to look out for whether the doors are gonna close or not, like the flashing light above the PSD etc. for NEL, the light is supposed to flash before the doors closing announcement is played, likewise for CCL.

Yesterday, at YWT station, one bangla stood beyond the yellow line when the train is about to approach the station. I could see his feet, about 1/4 of it were out of the edge.
So what happen? He fell onto the tracks then I pressed the ESP (too late already, if press also will still get hit) ? Nope.
I shout to him, and gave him a stern look. *Excuse me!! Train is approaching, please move backwards!!*

which is why the PSDs must be installed at a much faster pace..

Lucky him. BTW, are you sure this is not a pre-attempt to suicide? It is not like there is none non-Singaporean worker suicide in the MRT before.
PS: The Yew Tee shuttle is a epic failure to me. They should have extended that to Woodlands instead because whenever they get the pax to leave the train, the platform is always so squeezy, so if you are too late to alight and nobody excuse you and give way, I think it is better to run in the DNB train and alight again when the train crossover-ed and back to Yew Tee's Jurong East bound platform.
Another PS: Most people from Jurong East board the NSL should be going towards to Woodlands.

Ytd 343/344 on CGL, when it ended its services at 2218 hours from TRN 140, RATIS showing DNB but after train door closes, I saw one man trapped inside the train.. But luckily the train didnt move off..

The Yew tee bound train will definitely unload all the pax as the TO will chase everybody out..so in the end the train will just wait till everybody gets out.. And imagining if the PSD is in placed at yew tee.. typical singaporean or rather kiasu that will head towards woodlands will gather around the PSD and people alighting at Yew tee will have a hard time... either by the DNB train or the next train...

Well, that is why I am suggesting the Yew Tee train to extend it until Woodlands. There is a slidings there (On both sides somemore), so why cant?

The lights are switched on after the TO went to the cab. Air-con was on.

Actually, based on tender documents in Skyscrapper, there are 6 Tuas Extension stations.
4 of them are Tuas West Extension, which is expected to be ready by 2015. The other 2 are another branch line from EW30, a mega station with 2 island platforms, where the middle one has 2 tracks (2 extreme sides are for main line using usual style and the 2 middle tracks are for Tuas South Extension, that links to the remaining 2 of them, using Dover style.). It is also mega because the height will be at least 20m high. (The highest MRT station in the history)

Today while taking bus I saw a train (stuck?) on the tracks slightly before Clementi station. It was travelling at a very slow speed ( even the bus I sat was faster than it ).
It was raining heavily, about 4.35pm -
Yesterday, i saw trains heading to Lakeside (Westbound), in the middle of Chinese Garden and Lakeside, trains were in RM. for some reasons, and they enter the station very slowly.. Today some trains also enter slowly into Lakeside..

That's because of PSD installation. Trains have to move slowly when PSDS are being installed.
