Overall, the Circle Line Discover was great. However, I felt
that more could be improved from the forum side.
Khairiano has suggested using a tag to identify ourselves and
Veyron16.4 has even made a blank one for us to put our name in. Sad
to say, the only 2 people I have seen using this tag is
Interception_7 and myself. Maybe I did not see the rest of you,
which brings me to my next point.
There are some here who attended the CCLD in the same train as
us, but did not even say a simple "Hi". Is it really that
difficult? We all have the passion for trains, and we should
acknowledge each other's presence. Another occasion I encountered
was when I was entering the train from MacPherson while a group was
coming out. No acknowledgement as well. Let's keep this forum
united okay? Like what Interception_7 suggested, we should all have
met at Esplanade at 2pm just to say hi for maybe 15 minutes? And
then we can go ahead and do our own "discovery". The next possible
time I can think of with the whole forum going to the same location
would be CCLD from Marymount to HarbourFront.
And one guy I saw in the train, I don't know whether he is from
this forum. I was walking to the front of the train, and this boy
was holding his camera up to the Train Car Number at the front of
the train, staring hard at the number, shuddering and mumbling to
himself "Train Car Number... Train Car Number..." as he took the
picture. I shall not describe this guy to protect his privacy. I
mean look kid, I know you're passionate about trains and all but
can you don't look like a drug addict? What would the public think
of all railway fans?
By the way, the next CCLD, will be only from Caldecott and not
Marymount to Harbourfront.
And I would suggest, let's meet on Buona Vista MRT station OR
Harbourfront for the next CCLD at a fixed time, fixed spot. Some
people there, could have waited at EWL Paya Lebar for the current
CCLD, when the others thought meet at CCL Paya Lebar. Just an
example though!
