Heavy rains on Wednesday afternoon resulted in some commuters getting wet while on the train.
According to a Shin Min Daily News report yesterday, commuters on the East-West line were surprised when train doors opened at Tanah Merah station at around 1.50pm.
Rain fell from the top of the carriage into the gap between the carriage and the platform, soaking commuters alighting and boarding the train. Some resorted to opening their umbrellas in an attempt to avoid getting wet.
The floors of the carriages were also wet with rainwater that had flowed into the cabins.
Train service reportedly continued to run despite the damp situation, even as it was said by commuters to have been the same at Queenstown station, some 15 stops away.
