Wonder why the wider faregate (NEL , CCL,
Changi Airport Station) is supplied by Thales while the standard
faregates are the same as the ones in use at stations since 1987,
albeit without the “hole” for the magnetic farecard in front. They
didn’t even use the second generation ones found in Dover Station
and Raffles Place Station with the front LED entry/exit sign.
Recycling old stock?
And they pasted the wheelchair logo on the
left instead of the right, a contrast to the standard of placing it
on the right beneath the card reader on the faregates at
NEL.
+1 The faregates should be new cause this is a new
station...

older ones) Recycle (Covering the farecard hole)
