PEST control measures will be intensified at train stations and depots in Singapore, said SMRT after a video of a rat on an East-West Line train circulated online over the weekend.

The train operator also reminded passengers not to eat or drink on trains and in stations, as food scraps could attract rats and other pests.

In a video posted on social media, a rat is seen scurrying around the cabin of a train as two people attempt to corner it.

Passengers made way for the rat to move around, and some of them lifted their legs to let it pass as it scurried around the cabin.

The rodent was eventually guided out of the cabin when the train doors opened at a station. – May 25, 2026
