I was going down a rabbit hole of last train timings online and found out something… interesting. And by interesting I mean entirely misleading. I found out that if you used SMRT’s website to check out last train timings from their stations, it will say that it would depart at times like 1:30, past 2:00 and even as late as 3:00 am. Note that is is not marked as train service extensions (like on eves of holidays and events like F1) but rather regularly scheduled last trains every day. To my knowledge, most last trains depart from around 11:30pm till around 12:40-12:50am past midnight. Sure enough, after cross checking with the SGTrains website, the SGTrains Website had more realistic last train timings following the 11:30pm-12:50am window for last trains. So what happened here is either 1) SMRT are running later trains without anyone knowing or, more than likely, 2) SMRT has put out blatantly false and misleading information on last train timings. SMRT website is the light mode ones and the SGTrains website is the dark mode ones with examples from Botanic Gardens, Bras Basah, Chinese Gardens, Farrer Road and Woodlands South stations respectively. This error seems to impact most if not all stations listed on the SMRT website and not just these few stations only. submitted by /u/Psychological-Ad6868 |
