-
Exercise NorthStar V is taking place at four subway stations and a bus interchange.
The five exercise locations are Dhoby Ghaut, Toa Payoh, Raffles Place and Marina Bay MRT stations as well as the Toa Payoh Bus Interchange.
The drill started at 6.25am and will last till 9.30am.

They are namely:
1. Braddell
2. Toa Payoh
3. Novena

6. Somerset

how the passengers r gonna be affected since the MRT stations concenrned r closed? Isnt this drill r for the civilians?
-
I wonder how many people purposely woke up earlier today to ride the trains or wait at the MRT station, just to experience the excitement and to take photos..
Otherwise, who else takes the train at 0625 on a nice, rainy Sunday morning??

amusing ... i saw some so called "passenger" to make up the numbers.
