Happy 37th anniversary to SMRT and the first batch of KHIs that started service! The transformation of the local rail network and its journey is one that is unforgettable. From the KHI that first started service back in 1987 to the KHIs that are still surviving now, alot of changes happened in this duration and the situation now and then is definitely different as well. Having a world class transportation network (past titles) here in Singapore is never easy and not to be taken for granted. Despite having flaws and the recent appearances in news report, SMRT and KHIs still form a vital part of our public transportation network that we can and should be grateful for, travelling from one place to another, using it as a mode of transportation for scenery spotting or as a leisure commute round the tiny red dot. From Toa Payoh to Yio Chu Kang, this nsl stretch have grown over the years and eventually connects from Jurong East to Marina South Pier, from the west to the Central (South) region. What a significant change and a wonderful sight to have over the years! After many years have passed, it is so lovely to see the older generation trainsets surviving, together with the newer generation trainsets (R151 and KSFs) that run and operate on this NSEWL network! Toa Payoh, my home, our history, all a story! Happy 37th anniversary to SMRT, KHI and Toa Payoh to Yio Chu Kang stretch!🙂😀😃👀👂👍✌️😊☺️🥇❤️😍🥰🔥🤩👋👏💯🏅🏆🇸🇬💪🤝🫡😲🥳🎉🎊🆒️✅️📷🚇🚉
