Based on:
History of OpenBVE Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) And Light Rapid Transit (LRT) system
The 2000s was an era of great technical changes for the world of train simulation. The leaders of the train fans world across the world were convinced of the need to create a train simulation that not just focused on arcade gaming side which often at the expensive of realism, but also support it with a realistic and accurate technical details to support the world of train simulation.To this end, Takashi Kojima (Mackoy) had commissioned a project called BVE (Boso View Express TrainSim) in 2000 to create the initial possibility of realistic train simulation game. Amongst others, the initial product pointed such to a possibility for such realism rail transit system. As a result, it has developed with Version 2 and 4 of BVE in year 2001 and 2005 respectively with the third version were scrapped off due to development issues.
Despite so, it does not feature support for train exteriors, animated 3D cab environments and animated scenery that led to a lack of cab ambiance and caused a minus point for realism. It is also not released under public domain which upsets some hobbyists. Thus, an independent team from Michelle in 2009 had stepped forward to reinforce the initial BVE for a rail simulation that features those aforementioned features that was not present in BVE. It was named as OpenBVE.
2009 - The Work Began
In 2009, as the Singapore government in the world of train simulation had still not implemented a MRT system, thus the MRT system in the world of train simulation was in turn become a BTO (Built To Order) scheme. Hence, BVESG community was formed which is led by Willis Chong and Wenjie who had also formed WCVP (Willis Chong Video Production) Consortium that gives the go-ahead due to the maturity of train simulation along with the demand of it is ever increasing and work on the construction of the openBVE MRT began. The countless time and effort was put in and targeted to be completed with fully realistic train simulation without a deadline.The 6 km-long route would boast 3 stations, of which 2 would be above ground and 1 underground. The Changi Airport Branch line was implemented first as businessmen need to be ferried across the busy Changi Airport and the Changi Business Park, which is located at Expo.
On 21 July 2009, when its first section from Changi Airport to Expo was opened, thousands flocked to experience travelling on the MRT on a PC. The CEO for the WCVP Consortium, Mr Willis Chong¸ officiated the launching of the BVE forum on 19 April 2009. The remainder of the system was opened in stages and the final section of Changi Airport Branch Line was completed in 21 April 2010.
North South Line
In 7 July 2009, Jerry Transit Coporation announced its decision to extend the OpenBVE MRT system to Bukit Batok & Choa Chu Kang. Work on this 4.6km extension was completed on 7 September 2009. With the new MRT extension up and running, commuters can now choose to take off on a fast train.
Woodlands Extension, Bishan Extension, Jurong East Extension
In September 2009, Jerry Transit Consortium was formed along with Network Rail Transit System Limited (NRTS), whose CEO is Joey Foo and Matthew Rapid Transit Coporation (MRTC) which announced their decision to extend the OpenBVE MRT system beyond Choa Chu Kang, and goes through Woodlands, Sembawang New Town, Yishun New Town, Ang Mo Kio and Bishan Town. Provision plans to extend the North South Line to Jurong East was also conducted in March 2010.Work on this 26.2km extension was completed on 17 March 2010 with the exception of Bishan. With the new MRT extension up and running, commuters can now choose to take off on a fast train to travel between the Western and Northern part of Singapore.
East West Line
In 15 September 2009, The Soon Transit had announced the decision to further extend the OpenBVE MRT system eastwards, starting from Pasir Ris to Tanah Merah Station. This 6km extension will further enhance Eastern Region’s limited MRT connection of Changi Airport – Tanah Merah. However, the construction progress was not very smooth as compared to other lines and as of now, neither of the stations was opened to public yet.In 15 February 2010, Veyron Coporation (VC) by Veyron had announced its decision to further extend the OpenBVE MRT system to Clementi & Redhill, with the help of NRTS and Matthew Rapid Transit Coporation, both of them who have prior experience on Woodlands Extension. The first sector of the work on this 8km extension that covers Clementi to Commonwealth was completed on 21 February 2010. With the new MRT extension up and running, commuters can now choose to take off on a fast train towards the South Western parts of Singapore. The other sectors of Queenstown and Redhill are expected to be opened by Late March 2010 and April or May respectively.
Futhermore, on March 6 2010, the Union of Super Samuel Rail (USSR) had announced the decision to extend the OpenBVE MRT system from Bedok to Aljunied and more. With the reference of previous experience in NSL and VC's EWL, the initial 6.5km sector was completed March 14 2010. Also, the USSR had a joint venture with Jian Rong Group for future railway extensions such that provisions can be made to further extend the system Eastwards to Pasir Ris which allows people from Changi and Pasir Ris can have a direct transit connection to the busy CBD, which the construction has been halted down due to the technical challenging constraints.
Boon Lay Extension
Although no formal announcement has made, it is widely expected that either Redhill section completed or Bugis / Pasir Ris sector had completed first, the next major extension estimated to be 8km will target on connecting Joo Koon, which is part of 3.8km Boon Lay Extension (Pioneer & Joo Koon) to Clementi (Consists of Boon Lay, Lakeside, Chinese Garden, Jurong East and Clementi), to complete the Western part of the East West Line. The USSR has expressed itself in private that it hopes to see a completed EWL in someday future.North Shore Line Extension
19 March 2010, 10AM
Jerry Transit Coporation has started planning for a new route in the world of openBVE. The naming of the line and stations are under planning, but working name of the line has been announced, namely "North Shore Line Extension".
With this new line, people coming back from Malaysia can hop onto the station near Woodlands Checkpoint, bringing them to shopping malls or more MRT lines to go to the city for sightseeing.
The fare will be low and consistent for all stations, which is at SGD$1.20 The fare price may change as time goes.
North East Line, Bukit Panjang LRT, Sengkang & Punggol LRT, Circle Line and beyond
It is widely expected that after the completion of the full initial MRT network that is 89 km-long route consisted of 56 stations, where 40 would be above ground and 16 under ground, the next target would likely be North East Line (NEL), Circle Line (CCL), Bukit Pangjang LRT (BPLRT) as well as Sengkang & Punggol LRT (SKPGLRT). All these rail lines will bring benefits to people in the North East (NEL, CCL and SKPGLRT), South West (CCL -- In Pasir Panjang & Telok Blangah areas) and Bukit Panjang Town (BPLRT) region of the Singapore OpenBVE world. However, due to the number of population density in North East region (Notably Sengkang and Punggol) as well as Bukit Panjang is relatively low along with the lack of demands in certain portion of Circle Line (Notably Thomson and West Coast areas), priority to build such lines is low at the moment.
Rolling stock
The openBVE MRT government purchased 66 sets of the C151 trains. These are the oldest trains on the system, which have been running since the MRT system's inception in 17 September 2009, and are still in operation today. Originally, these trains were meant to operate of the North South Line and the Changi Airport Branch of the East West Line. However, with the expansion of the MRT network to the East West Line, more trains are required to ply on the lines. The C151 train contract was won by WCVP who will be responsible for building such trains.
The openBVE MRT government then confirmed another order of 19 sets of the second generation trains, the C651. The first C651 arrived on the 19th of March 2010, reducing the commuters waiting time for a train. For this, WCVP did not participate in the bidding instead which had then the train contract had won by JVC (JCQH Vehicle Coporation) who will then be responsible for building C651 trains. However, it seemed that JVC had the intention to transfer such tendership and thus a re-tender of C651 is a ongoing process. Currently, some of the companies interested in enhancing the existing C651s included NRTS, JTC and USSR with different levels of progress, where NRTS is known for enhancing the existing motors while USSR had a train that had enhanced on the power and braking notchs.
On the order list is the C751B , with the first trainset expected to arrive sometime in April this year. This train's contract was won by SBS Engineering Coporation, with SBS7322B as the CEO.
of course this is ficition movie but with basic facts hor.

Ask willis for his PSDs? Or ask me for the East West Line PSD? By the way, why would you need to install PSD doors? To develop what?

I mean your psds. i am trying. so next time when i create a new route underground then i know how to put the psds. because i have tried many many times but i don't get it right. so this it the reason why i am asking for help -

That is unless you want to do the NEL or the CCL

If so, probably, you will be doing the C830, right? Just post here if you have decided - we will unlock the C830 thread if needed.

you can make use of mine, but do note that CCL is 3 train cars. And hence, the length between the doors will be determined by your CCL C830. I dont have the satistic to help u that.
