Bye bye railway station

Tanjong Pagar railway station closes today. So have you go there for the last time? Although I do not go there, I am glad that I did in my lifetime been there, took a train before. Was at JB during my teen days and coming back to SG by train. It was the 90s. I do not remember much except I got impressed by a giant spring thingy at the end of the track, possibly to repel any trains that fail to stop at the end of the line. Losing the railway station mean there won't be anymore trains cutting through heartland. The youngster will not have a chance to see trains. They will only get to see one if they go travel to Malaysia. Guess the nearest substitute would be the MRT trains.
