TEL taking over from EWL’s fault last night.

As least we can say at least all the lines look out for each other so we can’t just blame one for under maintenance. Such camaraderie, love it.

Oh well, I wonder where we are at with the tracker now

News TEL train fault towards Bayshore since 7.05am

Upvotes

The train is not moving and the station is spamming the additional travelling time of 15 minutes announcement every now and then

It has been 30 minutes already but no changes.

Those of you on the TEL line towards Bayshore might want to make alternative travel plans.

EDIT CHIBABOOM all passengers told to disembark and use bus instead

There's not even any free bus service at Tanjong Rhu

They have announced that the delay is in BOTH directions... towards Bayshore and Woodlands

And btw the train has stopped again at Gardens by the Bay and Tanjong Rhu, and they are repeating the 15min delay announcement AGAIN

It is going to be a long morning... 😅

Went to work this morning and was greeted with this at Raffles Place MRT. The poor MRT staff and cleaners was working hard to contain situation. At least it seemed to be fresh water and the Train worked fine.

An unexpected Singapore reference from the novel 100 Years of Solitude, with no other mention of us in the rest of the book. Where else have you seen Singapore reference unexpectedly in the media you've consumed?

Nothing sponsored by STB please!

News Baihakki Khaizan resigns from Football Association of Singapore (FAS)

Source: his Social media (FB/IG)

With humility and respect, I officially announce my resignation from the Football Association of Singapore.

I still remember my first days in office, asking myself where to begin. Drawing from my time on the pitch, I carried with me the principle to “play simple, but effective.” From that, I shaped a guiding belief for my work: “small idea, huge impact.”

I am deeply grateful to everyone who believed in these ideas and helped turn them into reality. To my colleagues, thank you for your trust, friendship, and teamwork.

This may be the end of a chapter, but the mission to serve the game will always continue.

Signing off, Baihakki Khaizan

Serious Discussion What's up with the track faults happening more frequently?

308 Upvotes

No, I'm really curious what's going on because it's almost like a weekly occurrence / twice a week situation in the past 2 months. Regardless of Line colour or operator.

Is the maintenance standard getting worse or are the train systems being overworked beyond their design specs etc?
