It's amazing how some people have such romantic notions of EWL. Personally, the EWL is always crowded no matter the time of the day (even last train) while NEL is less crowded by comparison.
That said, one cannot expect his journeys to be fulfilled by public transport service point-to-point. Just work your travels around the system and find your way to your destination using the best possible route depending on constraints (costs or time). I know of at least 3 different routes of getting to my school depending on the time of the day. Do I want point-to-point routes? Sure it's desirable. However, cars and taxis exist for a reason.
And before that troll starts whining about how I label him a kid when I am still ostensibly going to "school", I would like to pre-empt his flaming by telling him 2 words:
ORD LOH.
Talk to me when you have served your duty to the country.
SMB128B should go look at Sembawang area, where only 858 is the only WAB service in the whole town, frequencies are more horrible than Sengkang, and the people there have more limited bus connections compared to Sengkang.

As for Holland Line,
Seriously I've heard abt it, but it's from Yeo Cheow Tong's era. That era planned lots of MRT/ LRT lines, but what happened later?
MRT can't be provided for every corridor.
The problem w/ the CCL is pretty telling alrdy..
