In Bishan depot one can see no activity after midnight unlike when it first started, the whole depot was lighted up with lots of maintenance going about. All the Generals are generally useless to lead ? Start closing station to station for 24hrs and do real maintenance works..! Provides shuttle Bus services between stations on a permanent basis to get our trains and tracks in proper working conditions to prevent breakdowns! Fine operators millions $ if breakdowns happen due to poor maintenance.

Pay Millions to our Ministers to come up with this stupid ideas of testing MRT trains??? When are you going to build another testing centre for aeroplanes bought by SQ ? Similarly, a test centre for cars bought in ? The major problem of trains and tracks reliability lies on the existing trains n tracks in operation that lacks real maintenance and supervision!!! Within 3 hours from 1-3am how much work can be done to check the tracks in darkness ??
