[h=2]Another train disruption: LRT train stalled between Bukit Panjang and Senja LRT stations[/h]Posted by temasektimes on April 22, 2012
One day after Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew ticked off SMRT for the recent spate of breakdowns, a LRT train stalled in Bukit Panjang today causing distressed passengers to be evacuated from it.
According to a netizen, he saw two LRTs stopped somewhere in the middle of Bukit Panjang and Senja stations today. A fire engine, red rhino and ambulance were also on standby in the vicinity:

Another commuter Teo Wei Shen added:
“Service A is disrupted; Services B and C (via BP7 Petir) are available. One vehicle has broken down and another vehicle has coupled to the broken down vehicle, likely to be sent back to depot. It appears to be the exact same section of track where a vehicle’s guide wheel disloged about 10 years ago.”
Passengers were forced to alight from the stalled train and walk back to the LRT station:

As usual, there are no public statements from SMRT as its management has long run out of excuses to cover up for its gross incompetence.
The Temasek Times is the FIRST news site in Singapore to report on the latest SMRT cock-up as such ‘minor’ disruptions continue to get censored by the state media.

11 passengers evacuated from stalled LRT train

11 passengers were trapped in a stalled LRT train between Bukit Panjang and Senja stations on Sunday evening and had to be rescued by the Singapore Civil Defence.

An SMRT spokesperson said that the train service at Bukit Panjang LRT (BPLRT) Service A and Service C was disrupted due to a train fault between BP6 Bukit Panjang and BP13 Senja stations at about 4.45pm earlier today.

One train was in operation when BPLRT Service A was disrupted and stalled before it entered BP13 Senja. SMRT staff was on site in about five minutes to attend to the 11 passengers on board the affected train.

Passengers on board another affected train were told to alight at BP6 Bukit Panjang, so that their train could be used to push out the stalled train.

The Singapore Civil Defence also arrived on the scene at about 4.50pm and led the passengers out of the train and onto the tracks. They walked about 150 meters on the 1.5-metre wide emergency walkway, on the tracks, to Senja station.

In a statement to the media, SMRT clarified that "this walkway is safe and is regularly used by staff for maintenance work".

No injuries were reported.

The string of problems affecting our transport system today hints at a system failure and I don't mean technical system failures. These systems have been bought whole lock and barrel like what have been supplied to other parts of the world. I am referring to the system of planning and managing our entire transport network system. In my humble opinion, it is in need of a major revamp, not just technical sub-system repair.

the transport system like many other systems in singapore needs a major revamp.

things are screwed when the focus changed from their primary function (of serving people) to making more money for their stakeholders.

Pappies doing another boiling frog experiment. Same thing for cigarette price. Slowly increase a little by a little over a long time, and all the smokers will get use to the pricing. Same for fare/fee/bills increase. Increase little by little and peasants will get use to the increment.
Breakdowns also no problem, peasants now immune already.

Hahaha. Might as well call it a 'live' emergency evacuation exercise. Since it's 'live' exercise, commuters are expected to treat the exercise as real and hence, need to walk.
