Kangadrool Supersonic February 28, 2015 Share February 28, 2015 nothing is free. For the amounting of walking you need to walk to hunt down the pick up point, must well walk straight home. The whole incident was very messy right from the start, announcements were made that free shuttle buses were available next to the canteen at the interchange. Huh? Where's that? Went down with droves of people and in the end nothing but confusion for majority of us as there were no ushers or signs. Gave up after a couple of minutes and walked home. Pheeew! What a workout! ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Supersonic February 28, 2015 Share February 28, 2015 Whether it is track intrusion or whatever, if the train service is disrupted and people cannot take the train, it is consider 'breakdown'!? And I find that since there are so many times of train service disrupted, how come the free shuttle bus service still so messy, confused and disorganised? The so called crowded controller at the free shuttle bus service did not direct the effected commuters to the boarding bay, and also did not indicate any signboard that the bus go to where?

Kangadrool Supersonic February 28, 2015 Share February 28, 2015 (edited) breakdown => disruption disruption =// breakdown when a train in service breaks down, it disrupts the flow and frequency. when there is a disruption, the disruption could be due to many other factors, e.g. weather, intrusion, foreign objects on tracks, etc besides train or train's ancilliary faults.

Lisw 2nd Gear March 3, 2015 Share March 3, 2015 Singaporeans that complain about being packed like sardines every morning should be grateful that our MRT system is maintained at high standards. Delays and frequent break downs are safety measures, designed into our MRT to avoid overstressing the trains. Sincerely Future MRT CEO (hopefully) more links http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=337_1329926091 Their pay is world class but not the MRT. We Singaporeans were not satisfy with the frequent breakdown and overcrowdness of the system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
