- was the first passenger at paya lebar
- press was there
- missed the first train due to asking for permisson and interview
- spotted train departing middle platform
- permisson was granted to flim the whole circle line
But I am the first non-staff to land the CCL PYL station (And first passenger for CCL test trains). Unfortunately, no one had video taped it, hopefully I can do it by 2019 / 2020 in some other MRT lines.
BTW, did you board the train in middle platform?

no, did not board. how to board, the media is a big headache. all happen in a flash. but everyday should be in the middle platform.

But is it possible to board, in the sense that if you are not being interviewed by the media. Well, your parents should be proud of you appearing in the headlines.

To cater for the demand at Stadium last night, there was a downroute train waiting at the middle track between Mountbatten and Stadium Stations. I went there at night. Can say the frequency is really good and the demand is there.

Heh, you were interviewed, right?
"The long wait is over for self-professed train enthusiast Ong You
Yuan when the train rolled in at Paya Lebar Station.
"I waited five to six years, and finally it opened, so I want to catch
the first train in the morning," said the 18-year-old Ong.
