So what's this? It's basically the map of Singapore's Mass Rapid Transport (MRT) where each station has a mascot representing the region. Their personality, jobs and behaviour are all centered around the facilities near the station. Though not 100% accurate, I hope you have fun reading the description. Feel free to share/add on in the comments.

A few more stations have yet to be represented on the map (:

So what's this? It's basically the map of Singapore's Mass Rapid Transport (MRT) where each station has a mascot representing the region. Their personality, jobs and behaviour are all centered around the facilities near the station. Though not 100% accurate, I hope you have fun reading the description. Feel free to share/add on in the comments.

A few more stations have yet to be represented on the map (:
