\"...More details about the future Thomson Line have been revealed.
The MRT line which will link Marina Bay to Woodlands will intersect other MRT lines at seven points...
The Thomson Line which will be fully underground will also have 23 stations in all, the report added.
The seven interchanges will give commuters more and quicker options...\"

Do we really need so many lines and stations?
Dunno to cry or laugh at our transport system... :faint:
