Got any video or (CHY) terminating announcement uploaded?
Just took CCL Marymount to Paya Lebar Evening peak service
When the train approaches Paya Lebar the CSO asked all passengers to alight . Both doors opened at the same time and a CSO made an announcement saying that the train at the middle platform is not for passenger svc . Then the train doors remained open for 3 mins without any passengers in the train. After 3 mins of emptyness a male CSO made an announcement saying that Passengers who are going towards Serangoon/Bishan or Marymount please board the train at the middle platform.
Evening peak 1st train departs from Paya Lebar middle platform is at 1715 hrs
well, i was inside 07 CCL this morning .. Seeing next train to PYL 5 mins when i was already at TS..
Still not CHY annoucement. Is a man saying(Temporary annoucement).
In train:
Paya Lebar interchange. This train service terminates at this station. Passangers who are continuing their journey towards Pasir Ris or Joo Koon, please proceed to the East West Line. Thank you for travelling with SMRT.

That's means CHY announcement didn't test yet... btw the evening peak service only weekdays??
Saw a CCL DNB Train. Look inside and to my horror, the VPIS said 'This train service terminates immediately, please alight immediately'.

Just now I am at the CCL PYL @ 1900hrs, no such thing happened, as in no CSO ask all passengers to alight.
However, since my intention is only to view what is in the front of the middle track (That leds to dead end), I stay there and see, it ends very shortly after the station.....
Hopefully, the dead end can link to Eastern Region Line, even for emergency use (Coz, I suspect the choice and size of the new depots for ERL is limited, apart of Changi Point, which I think they have to consider a Changi Naval Base & Airport nearby)

"The long wait is over for self-professed train enthusiast Ong You Yuan when the train rolled in at Paya Lebar Station.

yes, i was interview.
A lot of problems for CCL
1) Confusion of trains at PYL, directions and the terminating at PYL trains.
2) Problems I saw: 19/4/10 Set 30 TRN 001 in the morn DBG bound betwwen PYL and SGN, 8303 end door could not open fully. Causing passengers having to run to the next door. Only happened at Bartley and MacPherson out of the trip from PYL to Bartley.
3) Confusion betwwen Promenade platforms. BTW, the news has announced (SMRT said) that Promenade will be future built in Raffles Place orientation, so we can be sure that the opposite platform is DTL.
