A Train Derailment in Singapore?

We thought it could never happen
A derailment near an MRT station
Did a terrorist attack
Cause the train to jump track?

Never did it happen before
At least not in Singapore
Not even one survivor
The carnage seemed severe

Did Mas come back
And created this wreck?
This is no child's play
Let there be no such day

We should always be prepared
Children shouldn't be spared
They could practise evacuation
While learning about locomotion

What Frannxis mentioned here
Is also what I hold dear
When it concerns national security
We shouldn't take it easy

So be always on your guard
Against terrorism in your backyard
Or even in your front court
For Mas has yet to be caught


Before coming to a conclusion
May I pose you a question
Where in Singapore is this place?
An easy quiz you could surely ace

Need not a railway enthusiast be
Like Peter, Icemoon, Chun See or Stanley
A glimpse you might have caught
While passing by in modern-day transport

victor,
why travel all the way from bedok to tiong bahru just to catch a train on the loose?

Inspired from afar,
He moved closer (by car?)
To see a train so bizarre
At Tiong Bahru Plaza.

I think the train is located at Tiong Bahru Park near the junction of Tiong Bahru and Lower Delta Roads. This small park is also a favourite place for keep-fit enthusiasts.

YG, STST & Stanley - All of you got the answer right. (Told you it was an easy one.) But Stanley's answer was the most precise.

STST, I didn't approach the site by car but on foot. (Tiong Bahru Road is to the right of the photo.)
