Ignite my passion and beyond Part 3 : Trainspotting in Singapore

In this vast City jungle pack of Singapore, there's not may found about true wonders of trainspotting. But what does "trainspotting" really means? The definition of it simply complies of observing trains and logging the numbers. Generally involves standing around in any weather, watching the tracks.

Shot more than 4 years ago, ranging places of Sungei Kadut, Stagmont Ring, Ten Mile Junction and a few other places in Singapore, they are attracted among Singaporeans here by their roaring sounds of locomotive. Well it was great back then before everything taken away because of urbanization. What's left are just fond memories of my video capture.

Ten mile junction use to be railway crossing

Tanjong Pagar Railway Station. YDM4 runs parallel along two side service tracks while ending it's journey from the Malay Peninsula

 Sungei Kadut Railway Crossing. Any moments from here use to be a clean capture of the train bending on it's corners

A rare gem to see nowadays. Seen here train moving along up and down the tracks on the left using a shared system on a daily basis. Middle and right are use for yard and shunting. 

Being a trainspotter means safety is adhere at all times. Standing at a safe distance away. Armed with our standard or telephoto zoom lense, we're able to capture the train presence when it passes by.

How about something blue perhaps? Class 29 from Dalian Locomotive and Rolling Stock Company. Primarily these loco is being tasked for freight trains but now it's being mixed with shuttle and express services when they being called up for duty
