What wrong with it all being Tuas Tuas Tuas and Tuas? Gives an
identity. In London, there's Ruislip, West Ruislip, Ruislip Manor
and Ruislip Gardens all in one area.
If it were controlled by me, all 6 Jurong area stations would be
Jurong something.
And whoever says that the Tuas depot is for future expansion is,
I think, right but for the wrong reason. The 60 depot roads are
surely there for the purpose of stuffing more trains so the EWL can
run a madly frequent service.
Right now, even during the peaks, the headway is at least 3 min.
That's around 20tph. Moving-block computerised signalling allows
for up to 36tph or even higher by the time it's ready.
And how do we know that they won't be using it to run shuttles
to Jurong East to be reversed onto the NSL?
For your first two paragraphs. I agree with you. I dislike the
stations being duplicate. But I hope It's ONLY for working
names:
Tampines West, Tampines,
Tampines East
Tuas, Tuas Crescent, Tuas
West, Tuas Checkpoint
