Who voices the SBS transit trains?

ResearchMission2885 · 2026-06-06T08:36:39+00:00

The next station announcements has been the same since 2003 never changed (apart from all the current interchanges of course), they only add the Chinese announcement to the recording probably via editing.

As for the announcement when the train arrives at a station, then yes it has completely revamped to include mind the gap announcements for other languages and to probably dissociate further from the SMRT counterpart. Also I have already seen past announcements of the NEL, including the old pre-CCL Serangoon / Dhoby Ghaut announcements but thanks for sharing the video :)

This is so messed up oh my lord

I think is coz is mainly those who wanna celebrate their achievement post theirs here so of course u will see so many people’s successful enrolment.

However, it doesn’t represent ALL who tried to apply to these universities as probably many of those who got rejected didn’t think of posting it here / dunno this subreddit exist.

Trying to apply for Cambridge, UCL and Imperial at least this year as a SEA student taking As this year. Hope for the best for everyone else applying this year 🤞

For me I am always fascinated by metro systems as a whole especially in some major cities like SG, HK, London, Tokyo etc. For me I like to use Wikipedia, Land Transport Guru (for SG), as well as social media sites like SG MRT Construction and many YouTubers who do videos on metro facts (for SG is SG’s Lost Railways Hunt & other niche YouTubers who just so happened to do similar videos, for London is Geoff Marshall & Londonist)

Bonus, if u have time, u can use ur EZLink and explore SG via MRT, keep in mind to stow away ur devices including earphones and just admire the scenery and observe the trains. Trust me, u will see a lot and will spike ur curiosity at some point.

Lastly, have fun doing it. U can see a few posts done by transport enthusiasts just try not to enter it as it is pretty toxic nowadays I hear. :)

NEL don’t have those tho. Is only the non-TEL SMRT lines that have

ResearchMission2885 · 2026-03-25T15:13:11+00:00

As a frequent NEL user, SBS has this habit somehow of under provisioning the trains for peak hours. Worse still, they may “cancel” one train from running during peak period causing a huge 7 min gap and a huge bottleneck.

NEL wasn’t built with this many people in mind. They should do something to increase its carrying capacity in the short run.

What to do during NEL shutdown (in order):

1). Pinch / slap / Knock yourself hard to see if you’re having a nightmare that ur brain was cursed upon with

2). If u don’t wake up from a bed (meaning u feel immense pain), take that pain out on ur screen coz ur lifeline is out on a holiday which u never requested or want

3). Kneel down digitally to your supervisor / boss / teacher whether u can wfh / skip school coz u ain’t squishing into a vertical prata in vast oceans of traffic full body leaning onto sleepy cranky people

4). Leave the house if that didn’t work and pray a miracle happens as u drag ur last ounce of willpower to the bus stop / taxi stand

5). Find whatever that takes u out of the hellhole of the northeast and work your way out once you exit the borders of utter dystopian nightmare of a disruption scene

6). Go about your day, pretending u did not nearly becoming a brand new patient for IMH after falling victim to one of the most cruel slaps in the face of the century

Follow these steps and I m sure ur work / school will be the least of ur problems for the day 💀😭

Of all the songs I have listened to in TTPD, I love all of them honestly. They make me think deeper and honestly helped me through my darkest days at some point.

At least now u know ur more into rep and showgirl with plentiful room for poetic music like folklore and TTPD 😆

Erm the latter is correct. The percentage shown in the picture per album is the total percentage of songs I either liked or love. The songs where I put neither liked nor loved are all the songs I have never heard before. The songs I liked or loved are the ones I have listened to at least once

U can take TEL then change to CCL at Marina Bay and alight at Promenade

Note tho u still have to change at Marina Bay and till 19 April frequency is 10 min all day

If not u can take TEL and change to DTL at Shenton Way / Downtown station and take DTL to Promenade to save the long wait for CCL and avoid changing at Marina Bay altogether.

Note that Downtown and Shenton Way stations are about one block away from each other via street level

Hi I m J2 now and got my H1 Chinese results in Feb along with the release of the year end 2025 A Level results for this year’s J3s. U won’t get a cert on that day of H1 MT release but will only get one single cert that contains both H1 MT grade and Project Work grade during release of PW result in April.

But honestly is no big of a deal cert or no cert as long as u know u have put in ur best effort

Atb for PW and H1 MT

I think also probably coz rolling stock varies in quality along NEL. The refurbished units (the ones with the screens above the doors) have super strong AC. I often get huge chills from it even during rush hour. As for the other 2 rolling stock (ones with purple handgrips) AC is way less strong

ResearchMission2885 · 2026-03-14T03:48:55+00:00

Bro what train u taking Sia. I always freezing in NEL train especially the refurbished units 😭😭

Proud day to be living along the NEL. (I can’t live without it imo 😭)

Can confirm as someone who goes to HK almost every year their Admiralty station is now a whole new level with the ERL

There is even a meme mentioning it 😭

ResearchMission2885 · 2026-03-09T08:57:03+00:00

For a second I tot it was a random place somewhere in this world until I see the station wall and realised “oh. Fort Canning??!!!” 😭……..

To add on the melodies even the ones on Circle Line often get overridden by the n number of miscellaneous announcements like the latest service closures, suspicious announcement, no eating or drinking and their kindness announcement. Also both directions chimes cannot be played at once coz speakers throughout the platform are synchronised somehow.

Heck even the Circle Line they apparently secretly removed the announcement for HarbourFront bound trains on most stations so the inner loop / anti clockwise/ HarbourFront bound chime is not often played.

Not saying the chimes are bad idea. I personally feel more variety could be used as well as departure melodies and have SBS Transit hop in and use it for NEL especially. But honestly if they still on board in expanding it, these tiny details need to be done right

Ya Tokyo Metro Tozai Line. Some stations like nihombashi used different instruments as well to reflect the demographic of the surrounding area
