KBW even says to go "vegan" and sometimes take mrt...

But for me my answer is obvious...

See...say what dun want blame culture. Blame lightning ok lah. [laugh]

See...say what dun want blame culture. Blame lightning ok lah.

blame lightning.jpg

I'd mistaken you blaming PAP � :lll._.:

So it means smrt should shut down the train system when it is raining or lightning, since train sure would breakdown or delay?! And�seems like our�train system can only operate during good weather?

I always find this kind of explanation mind boggling. I wish I can apply that in work or studies. If I get more and more big projects wrong, my grades would get better and better The world is so wonderful!� :grin:

...ehh...what reward!??

�

for improvement in bus service ...

�

SBS Transit, SMRT rewarded for improving bus wait times: LTA

SBS Transit and SMRT have received S$1.34 million and S$504,000, respectively, after they improved bus waiting times under the Bus Service Reliability Framework.

Joined our Downtown Line (DTL) staff to mark the 200th disruption-free day over fried chicken and mashed potatoes (for me). DTL had a delay on 3 May but train service resumed within 30 minutes - this is the threshold for classifying delays as major disruptions, and an indicator that other systems use too. This milestone was hard-earned as the other MRT lines can attest to. 6 days after crossing the 100-day milestone, NSL had a disruption on 25 Apr, and its clock was reset. I understand there was another incident on NSL this afternoon.

Why do we watch over these milestones? Disruptions are inevitable - Hong Kong encountered 12 in 2014. To close the gap with Hong Kong on this metric, we need all our 5 MRT lines to achieve at least 150-day milestone; yes all 5 of them. Right now only DTL qualifies, 4 other lines have not even crossed 100 days. Our gap with Hong Kong is still wide.

To achieve these results, we mark every 100, 150, 200-day crossing, not that we are satisfied with it, but to track our progress and use the occasion to nudge one another on, towards the higher goal.
Working, day-in and day-out, in the trenches exerts tremendous pressure on our public transport workers. We need to keep the spirit up and morale high. Every little achievement helps, and I will always be there with the troops, as I was today with DTL staff.

With DTL crossing 200 days, we can aim to achieve 250 disruption-free days, but we also know that a disruption may still happen. We just got to soldier on.

SMRT reviews trains� air-con over rider complaints

In March, SMRT then set up a taskforce to look into faults present in the first three generations of trains. The taskforce found that first-generation trains had dust building up in their air-conditioner motors which worsens their cooling functions. Second-generation trains were found to have air-conditioners with leaking tubes, while third-generation trains had defects that caused a lack of proper control of the air-conditioners.

Interesting observation on the bus - Younger peepur text their messages on the phone whereas older aunties/uncles prefer to "speak" to their phone to send messages.

I am starting to suspect our MRT trains are made of these:

remembered it was brought up by LHL several years ago at National Day Rally that upgrading of signalling system will enable the trains to run closer ... but its a difficult / challenging task ... to me what's so knn difficult ... engineering only what ... we are not the only metro system in the world.

�

these ministars are paid like average $2 pa and all I hear from them is :-

- this is difficult / challenging

- community has to chip in to help elderly, crime, national security, save water etc ...�

�

so I find paying them to tell me problems is really waste time.

�

when they are paid that amount of salary, I expect to hear solution and outcome ... not problems.� :a-noway:

Errrr.... I dunno that's why I asked

Think you don't take mrt de, that's why don't know?! Thought there are plenty of posters paste all over the train and station, telling you that we are working on it! Lol. [rolleyes]

This is how our system and policy work here. Always tell you the problems, no solution and outcome. Worst still when they are so called able to solve the problem but in the end created another problem!

�

Seriously i have doubts on their new signalling system which enable the trains to run closer. Cause with current system which trains run between 2-4 mins, the trains already keep stopping half-way along the track or before a station due to train is still at the next station!? [shakehead] � Imagine when the new signalling system is running with an interval of 100 secs from the current 120 secs? I think the train would stop and go every few metres!

yes i can vouch for that. I had two occasions when lightning struck very very close to me outdoors. Once in primary school when playing football in the storm, the other at a golf course abroad.

When that happens, immediately dive to the ground, or you die.

Actually when peak hour heavy rain, train by right should be the fastest mode of transport.

Peak hours heavy rain, everywhere sure jam, if no car or never drive, difficult to get taxi ( I don't know about uber though). Take bus also slower due to traffic jam.

Seems like nowadays taking public transport can be more stressful then driving which should not be the case. Driving during peak hours can be quite stress for some due to traffic jam and also scared being risk of accident, road rage etc.. Well..

Lightning strikes 'won't hurt MRT commuters'

East Japan Railway Co. (JR East) wasn�t going to let something like an open door on a packed rush-hour train get in the way of punctuality.

With the use of a sheet and a railway employee deployed to prevent passengers from falling through the stuck-open door, the troubled JR Yokosuka Line train ran from JR Hodogaya Station to the major hub of Yokohama Station on the morning of May 11.

JR East said the operation was perfectly safe, but the one-stop ride did cause jitters among the passengers.

�Although the entrance was covered by the sheet, I was scared because the train seemed to be running quite fast,� a university student in his 20s said.

The problem occurred around 7:50 a.m., when one of the doors on the train would not close at JR Hodogaya Station.

Instead of suspending services, JR East attached a special sheet called Kinteimaku, 1.2 meters wide and 0.8 meter high, to the handrails at the open door, and a railway employee rode with the 200 to 300 passengers.

JR East said it decides whether to suspend services or use the Kinteimaku on a case-by-case basis.

�We decided on the appropriate response to the incident after considering the presence of inspectors at Yokohama Station, the large number of station staff, the ease to transfer to other lines, and the time needed to unload passengers,� an official of JR East�s Yokohama branch office said. �It was completely free of anything dangerous.�

The problem door eventually closed at Yokohama Station, but JR East kept passengers off two carriages near the door until the next stop, Shin-Kawasaki Station, as a precaution.

SMRT and NTU set up S$60m research lab to look into rail reliability

�

The SMRT-NTU Smart Urban Rail Corporate Laboratory will focus on developing better monitoring capabilities and enhancing the reliability of existing rail assets.

SINGAPORE: Transport operator SMRT and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) on Friday (May 20) announced its S$60 million joint research laboratory, which aims to develop technological solutions to make the train system more resilient and reliable.�

�

I think they should spend the $60m to reward their staff better and on train maintenance ....

research lab .... really?

if invest the $60m in changing all the wear and tear parts ... reliability can shoot up 60% liao !

it's like spending $400k to rename Marina Bay to Marina Bay

�

does that mean after spending $60m ... the research report is to highlight the importance of train maintenance? [sly]

SMRT reduces evening peak-hour fleet by two

...

It is understood that SMRT and the Land Transport Authority (LTA) have reduced the evening peak fleet to a maximum of 116 trains, from 118 previously. The two trains were taken from the East-West Line.

�

This is to reduce the electrical load on the system, until a full investigation into the unprecedented incident is completed.

How much power can the 2 trains consumed ???

Might as well take off 20 trains, then the consumption reduce ... [laugh]

if taking off 2 trains does not work ...

next thing is because bui bui passengers are adding to the load so need bui bui tax ...� [scholar]

hmmmmm............. at the platform, a weighing machine for every passenger. Pay by weight ...

hmmmmm............. at the platform, a weighing machine for every passenger. Pay by weight ...

�

not just by weight ... by distance also ...

�

cos bui bui who travel from Pasir Ris to Joo Koon adds more load to the system than bui bui who travels from Bishan to Orchard.

�

:XD:

Will they start ordering newer train that is less heavy or still maintain or worst order even heavier train. If it is the latter, it makes no sense.

Another safety lapse yesterday 1.50am near Sembawang station. Heng ah! d contractor survived d 750 volt electrical shock. SMRT please buck up before more lives gone.

if he not distracted maybe we have to pay him $4.5m ?�

Edited by Blueray, 31 May 2016 - 08:43 AM.

you may be right....

�

Distracted + Ownself Grade Ownself B = 2.25mil

�

Distracted + Ownself Grade Ownself A = 4.5mil

�

NOT Distracted + Ownself Grade Ownself A= 9mil

�

you notice passenger/customer satisfaction and train safety record not part of the equation?

�

if he not distracted maybe we have to pay him $4.5m ?�

�

Where got blame culture?

�

Eh hullo... already say is just a "remark" niah....

�

Just like the many PAP euphemism beforehand... there is a difference between what PAP says and what we understand. You are PSC scholar? No right? Then cannot expect to understand the difference just like me.

�

Let me add to my own quick reference list in case I need to revise their true meaning:

�

political euphemism (Singapore Version):

�

- flooding = ponding

�

- policy U-turn = policy rethink

�

- 1 million/gold taps = peanuts

�

- monkey middle fingering = twitter noob

�

- PAP MP f*** around with other people's wife = personal discretion

�

- MRT breaks down more frequently = more reliable

�

- Remarks = blame culture

�

Blah blah blah....here comes blame culture. Where's GKY?

�

I notice Khaw never show-face during breakdowns like Tuck Yew did.

Maybe he got appear lah.. But people though is Hui ge.
