Singapore - Met Edmund at his condo at 9am and off we went from Bishan MRT and alighted at Raffles Place MRT.  We walked through the quiet Saturday morning of business district and reach Tanjong Pagar railway station.    There were a number of old Malaysian railway houses and hope this will be kept as nostalgia. old Malaysian railway houses We came across the last reminder of the Malaysia Railway station with the sign 'SINGAPURA'.  The weather was scorching, and we found ourselves sweating profusely under the intense heat, but the experience was well worth the effort.
