ANother Refurbished Train?
-
It's very normal and common to have spark at crossover track. Sometimes, the blue machine box near the crossover track will flash.

Good news guys...
I'll be embarking on a massive train spotting project from the 6th of November to the 8th of November... I'll be taking down notes and many things on both the NSL and the EWL.
Also, I'm having high hopes of finding 063/064. -
For whole day? Or only during morning and evening peak? Maybe you can find 077/078 somewhere. Who will know...Originally posted by Oceane:Good news guys...

Most probably morning peak and off peak. No time to do camping for evening peak.Originally posted by Novawin™:For whole day? Or only during morning and evening peak? Maybe you can find 077/078 somewhere. Who will know... -
OK I'm back.
I took down trains for off-peaks on the NSL and EWL, and I discovered TRN patterns and similarities on both lines.

But hurry up if you wanna board it. It's on full day schedule today. Refer to the post 2 posts above and you know what I mean. It's sandwiched with 3 other refurbished trains. -
OK now for some funtime...
Can you all see where this was taken?

At a MRT platform above ground, i suppose Tampines Stn?Originally posted by Oceane:OK now for some funtime...

Well... there are many stations above ground... so doesn't necessarily have to be TAM.Originally posted by SBS9889U:At a MRT platform above ground, i suppose Tampines Stn?
Well yeah, but you're right. This was taken at Tampines. I went closer and found that there was a 10m deep hole and inside was pitch black. Seems like below the platform is wiring and stuff.
One of the contracters wanted to pass the station layout to another guy... then he dropped it into the hole! I nearly burst out laughing. -

During Sundays and PH, trains are rolled out from the first TRN 051 to 068. That makes 18 trains running full day on the NSL. Same thing for EWL.
For weekdays, trains operate on off-peak before the morning rush hour, and during rush hour trains are again introduced, however some early morning off-peak trains return to the depot whilst the rest (18 ~ 19 depending on the line) run for the rest of the morning till late afternoon.
When the evening peak reaches, trains are again introduced, and those trains that have operated for the rest of the morning and afternoon return to the depot, while the rest run till the day closes.
That's why you get a jumbled up TRN pattern during weekdays, but a straightforward and consecutive pattern during Sundays/PH, because the trains running on Sunday/PH run for the entire day. -

077-078 is nw refurbish train as i found this video.

Actually, those train run numbers are not permanent at all. SMRT will just shuffle the train run numbers up from year to year.

087/088 completed overhaul and was rolled out onto service on the 7th of November. First day shun NSL and hide in EWL liao. First day TRN was 045, it crossover from Bishan Depot to EWL during the morning peak. -
Yep, I'll just let this pattern stand as long as it is, and I'll continue monitoring the pattern until a new one comes up.Originally posted by tintinspartan:Actually, those train run numbers are not permanent at all. SMRT will just shuffle the train run numbers up from year to year. -

From wat I experienced last year, the train run numbers changed in December due to Holiday Timetable and was shuffled once the new working year kicked in and was shuffled again in June and July. Don't be suprised to see TRN51 as off-peak and TRN57 as off-peak too.Originally posted by Oceane:Yep, I'll just let this pattern stand as long as it is, and I'll continue monitoring the pattern until a new one comes up.
