but if common sense is used can surely tell that SMRT will be
operating the DTL since DTL will also be served partly by the Kim
Chuan Depot and the Kim Chuan Depot is also used to serve CCL,
which the tender to operate is won by SMRT.
Nope. It's not necessary that the company that operate CCL will
operate DTL. While it will be most convenient for the operators of
both lines to be the same, nothing is there to imply the
impossibility of having different operators under the same roof at
KCD, serving 2 separate lines... :)
oahiyeel is correct. Although KCD was built to accomodate CCL
and DTL, but the current facilities at KCD control centre is
meant for CCL, and not for DTL. The portion of tracks for CCL
is not linked to the portion for DTL.
