First of all sorry for hijacking thread, new member here and
won't stay for long. Just want to share a experience to you fellow
train enthusaist. I took the EWL Airport line, and the train is
travelling fast ( auto mode) when it passes by the depot, it
suddenly crosses over to the track meant for thr jurong east bound
train.
There is another train on that track rather far ( still quite
near ) behind us when it happened. The train did not slow down when
it crosses, it literally flew to the other track and causes a
massive jerk that i have yet to experience in my years of MRT
travelling. Quite a few people fell down. The train then crosses
back to the centre track at Tanah Merah station. I have never
experience this before on the airport line. Someone enlighten me
what had happened ? They set the course of the track wrongly or
something? The jerk was similar to roller coaster standards XD and
there was a loud noise, like out of a sudden BAM BAM and the train
flew over to the other track which it isnt supposed to.
There were no works at that area and the next train that arrived
at tanah merah via expo uses the normal track and not crossing over
to JE track then crosses it back.
Moderator or thread owner maybe can help me create a discussion
thread on it? (:
