If you missed it, Part 1 can be found here.
As mentioned in the first part, this shoot was done entirely on film. As I went through the process of having to go to a photo lab to develop and scan the two rolls of film, I couldn’t help but lament the inconveniences of film. Yet there is something distinctively satisfying about shooting with film. Good thing I’ve decided to hang on to my F6, I guess.
 Workers on the tracks examining the Orient Express train. |
 Seats for waiting passengers just outside the platform. You can see how aged they are. |
 Some of the shops at the station. I peered into Quick Baggage and found that they are apparently still in operation. Not sure what they do though… |
 A man drinking his morning teh in the station’s main hall. He turned away when he saw me approaching, unfortunately. |
 Some graffiti on the station’s wall. |

| There is a resting area with bunk beds inside the station. I’m not sure who stays here, but I’m guessing that the lodging is fairly cheap. |
 A row of pay phones in the station. Always a treat to see these in Singapore – so many people here own mobile phones that they are very rare to find these days. |
 Not a great shot, but thought I should include a shot of the station’s exterior. This was the only time I wished I had a wider lens – namely my AIS 28m f2.8 – on me that morning. (I only had the 35mm that morning.) |
After I got home that day, I went online to check out more information about the eateries at the station. I was just a little puzzled whether many Singaporeans visit the place for food. According to some blogs I came across, the satay there is supposedly quite good. But there are differing opinions on that, so I shall probably give it a miss.
