Yes, we were there; Downtown Line
1’s open house! We wanted to experience the new trains and stations to get a
feel of how it will be like to take the Downtown Line in future, and here’s our
experience.
First things first; you might want
to prepare yourself for the cold air-conditioners in the stations and trains
because they are really new! The moment we entered the station in Chinatown, we
were greeted by a huge crowd as well as an energetic performance by some old
folks singing traditional Singaporean folk songs. After snapping some pictures,
we immediately headed to the basement to have our first ever experience on a
Downtown Line train!
