Taken at around 12noon on a weekday.
Saw Phaik Hwa, president & CEO, SMRT, said: “The importance of the train is to ensure you can pack as many people as possible.”
Keep up the good work guys.

Thought I’d drop some inspiration DK. Been seeing your photos documenting the time vs. density of the trains. Perhaps you could do a time lapse video or a giant mosaic using photos taking at different times of the day. Makes your project more visible

DK, they’re doing good, but not best yet. (Look at the blank space infront of your camera and your ability to lift your hand up for a photo.)
I was on Shanghai’s MRT 3 weeks ago. You really feel like Sardine having your body pushed against each others’. Not to mention it was Sunday that I took train.
I wasn’t even able to lift my hand up, or to move or even hold on to the hand rails.
Just my two cents.
Uh huh…And there i was thinking that the importance of the train was transport convenience. Well, I couldn’t be any more wrong I suppose. Indulging in armpit juice and smelly farts come first.
I have been on the Shanghai MRT before and while it is true it is packed beyond imagination, Shanghai also has a higher population density where people from surrounding towns comes into the city to work. On top of which, there’s a turnover of passengers every few stations. Try get that kind of turnover in Singapore.

Kevin: Good idea. Let me collect more photos first.
Felix: Why we compare with Shanghai? Why not compare ourselves with other countries who are doing better?
Johahn: Armpit juice and smelly fart? eeerrr….. eeerrr….
Xizor: The town planning also plays an important role. We got too many stuff on the central already. Causing everyone to all go to town in the morning and thus such a packed train.
Haha! I greatly enjoy almost all your blog posts, DK.
