It's quiet interesting and fun in the New Downtown Line (DTL) especially the new train.
What's so fun and interesting?
- the new designs for the reserved seats and friendly shout-out like, Be a Friend, Be Good, Be Sweet, Show You Care... It's very nice and can remind all the passenger be a friend, be good to the elderly, be sweet to the pregnant woman and show you care & respect to all the passenger who takes this train.
- an unique themes & designs, ambient music in respective stations. It's can make your day nice & good in mood.
- new designs for queue lines
- more standing area spaces and capacity
- a brand new electronic entries
The ambient is very nice. So, I took this new Downtown line (DTL) to the end North East Line at Chinatown. Chinese New Year is coming to town, many department stores, streets places already decked out with all the glowing red decorations. One of the famous places - Chinatown. As this year is the Horse Year, of cause there will be many Horse decor & let the whole street and places full of Chinese New Year atmosphere.
It's very fun, convenience & easy to take the new Downtown Line (DTL) to Chinatown. So, guys you may try and experience this new Downtown Line station.
Look forward for the next Stage-2 and Stage-3 opening.
Cheers,
