Malayan Railway Bridge Near Bukit Timah


After the agreement between Singapore and Malaysia to move the Tanjong Pagar train station to Woodlands, and the handing over of the freed-up railway land to Singapore, the tracks were open to the public for two weeks to walk on.

After which the tracks would be off limits, and construction crews would tear up the rail tracks. As you can see, there were lots of people taking a first and last close-up look of the tracks. 

The URA (Urban Redevelopment Authority) plans to keep the rail corridor
( http://www.ura.gov.sg/railcorridor/ ) in a natural state, as a "park connector."

Malayan Railway (KTM, Keretapi Tanah Melayu) operates the railway between Malaysia and Singapore.
