This is a positive side to STARIS - can help warn ppl when there's no announcements.
If it had been a C651... where there are no blinking light indicators and STARIS, I do not know what to say.

this is when no announcement when people outside the train
STARIS: on , Door closing LED: on - no problem
STARIS: off , Door closing LED: on - no problem
STARIS: on , Door closing LED: off - people outside the train can't see the VFDs
STARIS: off , Door closing LED: off - BE CAREFULL!!! -

Yesterday at Jurong East when trains pass by a 3rd rail end when going southbound, orange sparks are created, and smoke can be seen flowing out. Unlikely to be an electrical arc (ok or maybe small flames caused by it), may cause abit of danger?
-
It is most likely was that the 3rd rail had overcame heat through friction and the electricity heated the portion of the rail until what you sighted.this plobrem was common in the 1990s,when there were very little spare parts then.now,getting an extra part of the 3rd rail should not be a plobrem.And,it is only dangerous if the train's motor is ignited,resulting in a fire in all electrical compartments.

011/012 had loud announcements but some problems with STARIS.
011/012 showed Doors Opening "Other Side" above the train doors on both sides. Is the emergency exit going to be opened? o.o

Info display fail =.= It ended up as disco lights and flashed non-stop. -
There's a section of tracks between Choa Chu Kang and Bukit gombak where trains are moving slowly Yesterday. Speed increased alittle today, but its still slower than normal.

There was a track fault there yesterday. Think it's due to the switch.
PS: Only northbound side is affected.

Today
At around 8.25am, a C151 merely collided with a C751B @ Yishun station (Marina Bay bound). Thanks to the ATC installed at all trains, the C151 didnt colllide with the C751B in front of it, since the C751B was still inside the station, and C151 about to come in. *I was inside the C151 (027/028) and it stopped violently in the middle of the tracks. As i looked outside the window, i was shocked to see that an unidentified C751B was still inside! Every1 onboard the train had the same feeling as mine when i saw that. Lucky there were no accidents. :)

Ooo that always happen during the evening peak hour
-
When I was at DBG camping in morning peak , frequency was 1-3 mins. At JUR , the frequency is 2-5 mins in morning peak.
213/214 at the 2pm trip , the train used the Westbound tracks (formerly used by CGA to BNL shuttle) from XPO to TNM and the train also stopped between CGA and XPO (TO didn't applied EMG brakes , should be B3).

9.36 am in JUR , there were 4 C651s , 2 departing and 2 approaching. 1 from each bound (EB , NB , SB and WB). The trainsets were 207/208, 209/210, 211/212 and 223/224. I will never forget this moment. If 223/224 is 213/214 , then it will be a combo!
