NS12

There was a time when I didn't even know what the red line's name was. I called it North-East, because that was how stupid I was. Then came a time when the hurricane brought me on it and I knew its real name. Perhaps it was about half a year later that I finally knew more stations by heart. That I realised there were actually two missing stations.

At that time I read that its name was rumoured to be Ishak, though there's no trace of that anywhere on the net today. I didn't even realise they'd already started construction. It was only last December when I passed by that I noticed the weird shelters protruding out of nowhere, somewhere between Yishun and the station prior.

Being a station built on an already existing line, it'll probably have separate platforms just like Dover. Another station with train tracks in the middle. I can't imagine how difficult yet intricate it must be during this process. But what do I know? I can just wait and see.

Too bad for me I am nowhere near enough to watch this construction grow. It used to be nothing more than an unnamed plan, just a clean slate left empty between NS13 and NS11. Now it is Canberra, so far from what I expected. So far from me. I may or may not make any memories in this station.
