Two YouTubers followed a convoy transporting new MRT train cars to Tuas Depot at night and a video of their antics was uploaded on Dec 23."On Dec 19, there was a new train being delivered to Tuas Depot, which is a restricted area," said the Stomper.
"There were a few train enthusiasts waiting outside the depot for the new train to be delivered. One of the YouTubers was apparently caught by Land Transport Authority staff for filming but gave silly excuses to film despite not being allowed to film outside the train depot as it is a restricted area.""Sorry, where are you all from?" asked the LTA staff, who was not caught on camera.
The reply cannot be heard clearly due to the noise in the video, but one of the YouTubers then said:"We're just filming the train for fun."A YouTuber replied:"We're just getting shots of it outside before it goes in because once it goes in, it's a protected area. We can't shoot it inside. This is still a public area."YouTuber:"We do YouTube. We are just showing people the new trains and all.
"The main question is, why do these train enthusiasts have the special privilege to track the new train delivery, which is confidential? Also, why are they allowed to film near the restricted area?" asked the Stomper. "Why did the LTA staff choose to believe the silly excuses knowing that they are filming right outside a restricted area? What happens if anything happens?"They were allowed to shoot their video because they were in a public area even if it is near a restricted area.Get more of Stomp's latest updates by following us on
