🚶🚶🚶📷Walk with me, Documenting the defunct railway station | 跟我走,记录关闭的火车站 (by @ace108)




Introduction | 简介


We have a railway station at Tanjong Pagar, Singapore, which had stopped operations for a number of years. Since after mid-2011 to be exact. The premise is closed but had been open only on public holidays for people to visit. One day, as I passed by, I decided to stop spend some time to take some photographs which I’m sharing in this post. It’s a good thing I did too and I’ll explain a little later.

我们在丹戎巴葛,新加坡,有个火车站已经关闭了好几年-自2011年中后。虽然关闭,但在公众假期有时候会打开让人们进去参观。有一天,当我经过的时候,我决定停止给一些时间来拍一些照片做点记录也好在这跟大家分享。这是不错的决定。我稍后会解释为什么。

Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is called “Deck the Halls” - a traditional Christmas carol dating back to 1862.
让大家继续读的时候,欣赏一点音乐。这曲叫”Deck the Halls”,是普遍的圣诞曲。

The place is fenced up but I can still see the building from the side.

这个地方是围起来,但从旁边还能看见火车站。

Near the road, at the corner where the fence bends, there is this amazing old tree. I hope it remains.

栏杆在路边拐弯处有这课老树。我希望它会被保存。

So, you see this will be closed until 2025. Unless I find time on Christmas day to go do more “documentation”, I may not have another chance. Anyway, on Christmas day, I’m sure it will be swarmed with humans. Whether I’m one of them, I’ve not decided.

所以,你看,这将会关闭到2025年。除非我抽空在圣诞节当天去拍更多,我可能不会再有机会拍到。不管怎样,在圣诞节那天,我敢肯定,那里会人山人海。可能我是其中之一但我还没有决定。
