Observation - Yck Station at 7.30pm [04/09/08]

7.30pm Yck Station
- Working Adults [Most]
- Students [Very few]
- 3 groups of parents with little kids [Bring kids out, not fetch them home from school.]

Observation at control station
- Movement slower
- Don't look rush
- Working adults chat with friends

Comparing
* Working adults tends to stand at the center of the control station to wait for friends.
* Teenagers/Students tends to stand along the corners or sides of control station to wait for friends.
* Top-up Ez-link card machine are mostly used by students.
* ATM machine are mainly used by working adults.

On platform
- When train going to Yishun arrived, those that are not taking it looks tired and moody.
- Passengers standing looks more relax, not so tense compared to peak hours. [Reason might be because of cooling weather]
- Some aunties have no place to sit while waiting for train, they seat on the edge of the railings.

While waiting they will:
- Listen to Mp3
- Stand and do nothing
- Talk to friends
- Do nothing
- Some stand behind yellow line

In Train
- Not so pack with people
- No need to squeeze with others
- Starts to see people standing playing PSP, read books/newspapers/magazines. [Enoguh space to play]
- People sitting down normally do nothing. [Mostly working adults/students]

Notice
We realise that cabins nearer to escalator of each station, have more crowd.
- Mostly working adults. [More convenience when alights train.]
- Towards first & last cabins, mostly teenagers. [Mainly because they don't like to squeeze with others.]

Crowd alight mostly at:
- Yishun
- Admiralty
- Woodlands
