Train breakdown calls for two commissions of inquiry, not one

[Confuseous]

Even the scheduled shutdown on Sunday morning, to enable a visual inspection of all tracks, turned out to be messy. Shuttle buses intended to ferry passengers from station to station did not know their routes and got lost. At the start of the day, there were reports that the buses did not arrive till more than an hour later.

One man wrote to say that he rode the Circle Line to Paya Lebar Station on Sunday, expecting to change to the East-West Line for an onward journey to Changi, only to discover, only upon arrival at Paya Lebar that the East-West Line was not running. There was apparently no information en-route on the Circle Line as to what was happening at other parts of the rail system.

I can imagine SMRT was trying to guide the Ah Tiong drivers remotely from the control centre. Lucky, this time they manage to improve the timing to 1 hour instead of 2. Don't worry, there will be more cock-up for improvement.
