AM/PM/Full Day: Mainline EWL Testing

This video features an Alstom Movia R151, 825/826, which is from TWD to serve EWL as a test train. 825/826 came out from TWD to do some mainline EWL testing in the late morning to the early afternoon hours. The 1st clip features 825/826 at Simei Eastbound, heading towards (1) Pasir Ris. The 2nd clip features 825/826 at Bedok Westbound, after it have turned around at (1) Pasir Ris and is heading towards (2) Tuas Link. But unlike 823/824, 825/826 was not detected as a "Do Not Board" on the RATiS and showed "(1) Pasir Ris" and "(2) Tuas Link", which can be seen at Simei EB RATiS and Bedok WB RATiS respectively. This also confused quite a number of commuters as they thought it was a fresh train and would open its doors, but nope. Still, pretty cool to see the R151 showing (1) Pasir Ris instead of "Do Not Board" as a sneak peak for tomorrow's debut on EWL!

Sadly, 825/826 only lasted for 1 round trip before heading back to TWD afterwards.
