Come on
I just want to say, no matter how many people, at least you still in the train not on the top of it.
No offence

None taken.

You have to go there and travel and see la. Interstate travelling in trains in India is one of the best experiences you can have. Of course you don't travel on top of those trains. Your idea of travelling on top is seriously flawed mate. Thats more like stereotyping. I have travelled more then any of you on trains in India probably. Journeys lasting almost 62 hours and more.

I have yet to come across people who travel on the top :) Yes I have seen those pictures and yes they do happen but not for people like us. Those are extremely poor class. You go there and spend about 30SGD and u can travel in superb comfort with meals inclusive, power for your laptop and now even internet in the trains. Yep.. I am talking about long journeys here by the way.

For ladies, they have ladies only compartment for the extremely low class tickets and try getting into it and I am sure you will be beaten into pulp by the ladies themselves :p

I am going back for holidays to India next week and one of my prime attraction is my train travel :p Its the best and most memorable. Nothing like travelling in the mrt here which is overridden with kiasu people who only know how to rush into the trains and don't give seats up to more needy people. Always an unpleasent experience.

Yeah and she managed to stereotype every race! Well Done! I am sure you are well embedded with Singaporean culture now.

I like the trains itself only,.

flaws are found only if one looks for it. i don't understand why people like to focus on the black dot on a piece of paper, not the purity of the whiteness that surrounds it.

many constantly praise the taipei mrt or hong kong mtr, claiming that they're more "civilised" and polite than us.

their train system is better, i don't deny, especially for Hong Kong's case. but civilised? don't count on it. ive been in hong kong recently and i find that they are no better than us. I see elderly with walking sticks and not being offered a sit all the way from Tsim Sha Tsui station to Mong Kok station. In singapore, i dont really see that, somehow someone will offer their seats.From my observation our society is family oriented, something we can be proud us. Its a norm to see parents with kids in strollers, elderly with their grandchildren having rides on the train. In Hong Kong, I hardly see the elderly or young on the trains, even in the New Town areas. Their bus stops don't even have chairs. I really pray hard that Singapore will not become that.

Singaporeans don't queue up like the Taipei people do? Can you really blame us? Have you even tried getting on board a train during the peak hours, especially on the green line? The trains run at 2-4 mins frequency, yet its so hard to get on. Will queue-ing really make things better? It will just congest the platform, and we will not get on while the train takes a longer time to get passengers on.

They should have double deck train, if not a double deck railway, to accomodate more people to sit inside while saving space horizontally.
