Crowded MRT

[dash79]

It was super crowded at the JE MRT station platform AGAIN. Think this is the 3rd or 4th time this year... probably the trains on the East West line were delayed or something, and the North South line trains continued to dump people onto the platform. I managed to get on the 3rd train today, which is not too bad. There was once I had to wait till

yeah... but I usually board the train only if I'm right in front, so that I can board first and move right to the centre... don't have to get squished at the entrance/exit

hmm...
just wanna give some comment abt the east-west mrt line while you're on it.
Is it true that the morning frequency of this line (specially towards the east) is lower than the north/south line or is it just my feeling?
coz i have to wait for 7 minutes for trains for eastbound trains at about 630-745AM everyday and by that time 2/3 trains have already dumped their passengers in city hall.
any comment on similar experience?

[dash79]

oh... maybe that's till off-peak time? when I take the train from jurong east at around 8+am, the frequency for both lines are between 1 to 4 mins... fairly frequent I'd say...

[mongky]

humm... maybe, but i always feel the north-south train towards city hall is more frequent than eastbound train. :(
