- After years of usage, our MRT trains are subjected to wear and tear. What is being done to maintain the efficiency of these trains?

I'm a Train Enthusiast and plus, I'm working in SMRT as a Train Service Controller for NSEWL! I'm really proud of my job hehe
Very happy for you!! Really appreciate all that you and your team does for us, thank you and keep up the awesome work!
Im a TH-cam enthusiast and i love to make comments commenting on transport nerds.
24 hour service on friday and saturday night at 1h intervals would help so much. not even everyday, just on weekends when people go out late
And for folks trapped in the airport after a red-eye flight too. It's almost nigh impossible to flag ride share in that hours.
like the guy in the video said.... there are track works to be done, if run 24hrs some area that need track works will not be able to do so. if only run area with no track work than also abit pointless bah
@@DTsunayoshi London already do that on Friday and Saturday, it's called the Night Tube. They run up to 6 trains per hour(every 10 minutes) on selected lines and routes. They would just do the maintenance works on other nights.
Enjoyed this one OGSxSMRT/LTA! Must have been hot while filming in the depot & railside and also cold when in the OCC!
Not just Singapore. Malaysia does similar things as Singapore as well. Most of them were cut off by 12am as last service and first service around 6am. So, between 12am-6am which is off peak hours, they will make an inspection and replace certain parts of the rail track. Which also helps to avoid any accidents when it operates again by 6am.
But most Malaysians have their own transport
Cars are forced to lead a short life due to the ten years COE. A bit strange to compare the forty year longevity of a train to a car
Not necessarily the case. There's nothing stopping car owner from simply bidding for another COE for the same car. It's just a matter of whether they deem it worthwhile when compared to the value of the car. There's CNA's Steven Chia and his 1971 Benz for an example, still going strong.
@@teeteetuu94 But the COE system makes it not viable to continue with the maintenance
Seems like we are forgetting one tiny little detail.
COE is there to regulate and an attempt to reduce amount of cars that we have in SG. Sooner or later, we will run out of space to park cars in SG regardless how much MSCP that we could build. It was nvr ever about the longevity.
@@sxlrora I know but the person in the video compares longevity of mrt with car.
Train is government own transportation. Do you think it's wise to charge your own self for providing transportation to the community?
Please flim a SMRT buses too 😊
If 24 hour trains how to do maintenance?
Separate track 1 maintain 1 working
@@mr_crazh2254 yep in Copenhagen they do like that
Easier to comment then doint the actual job itself. Don't see the need to compare to other countries either.
The whole purpose of the video is to give an overview and provide insight of what happens after the non-operating hrs.
I think not 24 hours but at least to a later time like Japan.
@@neeha9449 and if I'm not mistaken, a few lines in Delhi as well.
Mid life upgrading unfortunatly was not sucessful for c651 trains tho :(
Good! Make your heart pain to see them taken out of service???😂😂
@@jessicaregina1956 they refurb some but then immediately scrap, without returning to revenue service. waste tax payers money
When will they develop codm 2?
How about 24 hours service at Christmas Eve, New Year Eve or lunar new year like Hong Kong MTR?
There are extended hours for those days already. Effectively 24 hours actually.
that's what heroes do
Interesting and for the Singapore MRT Network why not copy how the Germans and the Danes do it in Europe 24/7 service on weekends only at the frequency of 10 to 15 minutes. I wonder why they don't just use a machine because here in the northeastern United States they use a loram rail grinder
This aint an easy job they have to get it done before like 5 or 6 am
24 for what ? Singaporean need to sleep well for work next day. No train/bus will make people stay at home to rest
You think Singaporean only work morning shift?
@@theachilles96And the video literally shows night shift works lol
@@theachilles96then ask your company provide transportation or change ur job.
Yeah
@@ClaraFlater_than_surface_boardyou think all companies can afford to provide transportation ah? Also, you think v easy to change job?🤡
Hmmm majority younger generation don’t want this kind of job.
Some Singaporeans like myself, prefer to work 6 hours a day, 4 days a week. Foreigners only pretend to work 8-10 hrs job, with the pretend/pretext " Singaporeans don't want these jobs". Actual CCTV footage, foreigners slack/M.I.A from the job
Can work from home ? The graduate officers got make their hands oily ?
