thing is, say Tampines - Paya Lebar/ Ubi, you remove some buses
to make ppl take e CCL.. but they'll need to take e EWL somewhat,
so that means unknowingly they're trying to overload e EWL
tat's alrdy overloaded?
I think they'll still thinking 1800 per train is 'practically'
possible
Nowadays the capacity easily hits 180 percent in peak hour, in
fact its 200 most of the time...
There is this formula for calculating how much percentage a
train carries. A carriage is said to be 35 percent full when its
fully seated. This is 50 persons (for normal carriages). 100
percent (fully seated and 90 percent grab handles full) is 142
persons. Times six carriages is 852 passengers. 1800 passengers
mean 211 percent full...
