I'll roughly translate it out then.
"Singapore has train fans who enjoys taking photos of trains and
sharing them with other train fans online. This has made the public
worried.
In this discussion room for Singapore Trains, it congregated
many train fans who likes taking media of trains
As known from 'Lianhe Wanbao', these train fans like to take
photos of exterior and interior of train advertisements, and share
it with other train fans on the discussion board.
They also compared trains from last time and the ones currently,
which brought back memories of Singapore's transport system.
However, on 29th March, Russia's capital Moscow had 2 metro
trains packed with people bombed, which caused 39 deaths and almost
70 injuries.
MRT stations are now again the the focus of terrorists, which
caused the MRT system to raise its security even more.
Some members of the public worry, if people take media of trains
within MRT stations, would the security be affected? Would
terrorists find out anything from those media that makes it easier
for bombings?
One of the train fans within the discussion board, posted a
notice 2 days after the incident, warning them to refrain from
taking train videos and photos, that's because 'if you get caught
(from taking photos and videos of trains), you may not be let off
easily like all other times. You may even be arrested
immidiately.'
The moderator of the discussion board also stated 'If you still
want to take photos and videos of trains, take them at your own
risk. Tou can continue to post your pictures and videos of trains,
however.'
Many of the train fans felt disappointed after reading the
notice. Someone asked, 'When will security here be loosen? Not
being able to take photos and videos of trains make us sad.' "
May not be accurate, but at least gives you a summary about the
article.
