World Class Transport?

Cant believe it. The NEL or better known as Northeast Line is down for almost a day. It must have been a major fault that left the station closed for 8 hours. Thousands of commuters were affected. This breakdown also mean more work for me. Has been rushing ard like mad since afternoon.

To add on, a long meeting in the afternoon had delay much of my working time. Everything was in a hurry. Even mine dinner time was cut short. I ate so fast that i dun think my stomach can take it. Very bad and unhealthy for digestive system. Thankfully, when i reached home, i can still manage to catch NEL.

I was seriously wondering how would SMRT look at the whole issue. NEL, run by SBS Transit, came into the picture in 2003. Only a short period of 3 years, a major fault surfaced. Billions of dollars have been invested and it kept boasting abt its driverless system. So wat happen today?

There are bound to have flaws in any system. Having a long break down is really too much a commuter can accept. By the way, NEL charges higher fares than other lines, i think someone must come forward to give a good explanation to the mass public. World Class transport system? Yeah, marred by unforseen circumstances.
