Yesterday, comrade Kodomut and I headed out to one of the more hidden spots in Singapore for chapter 5 of the Nendo’s Travelogue. Our chosen location was the old Bukit Timah Railway Station which was located far away from the main road and did not have much human traffic except for the occasional mountain bikers.

So here’s everyone lining up for the customary group shot. I wonder how is that in the background?

The train tracks were paved with large granite stones and it made it really difficult to walk on, and I regretted not wearing track shoes. In this photo we can see how huge the stones are compared to Pastel Ink’s face.

Since this was a live train tracks, it is important to exercise caution and walk in a single line, especially if you are crossing the train tracks.

Here’s Miku standing at the junction of the train tracks, I wonder what she is up to?

Since we were by the train tracks, the classic “damsel tied to the train tracks” is a must ^^ Poor Zetsubo sensei ended up being tied up on the rain tracks by Rin and Miku. Thankfully the next train was only due 30 minutes later …

The rest of the day was left for Nendoroids to explore on their own. Rin finds that the train tracks are being locked, and wonder why is that so?

Kagami discover an extremely rare specials of bear by the track side, it is called “Rilakkuma” ^^

Naughty Rin throws a piece of rock onto Miku’s head. That seemed to really hurt. Ouch!

After a traumatizing of being tied on the tracks, all Zetsubo Sensei wanted was to take the train home. I’ve included a video of Zetsubo Sensei by the platform while the train passes by below:

That is all the photos I have taken for Chapter 05 of our Nendo’s Travelogue. Do out check comrade Kodomut’s entry as well, when he post them up.

This chapter of Nendo’s Travelogue was one of the most interesting and yet most exhausting shoots. Because there weren’t any shade available anywhere, and the train tracks were extrememly hot, we became dehydrated really quick. The entire photo session only lasted for around 3 hours and we had to retreat to the nearby McDonalds.

Just one word of caution for those who intend to visit the train tracks – Do check the timing of the oncoming train before conducting the photoshoot. It is very dangerous to shoot on any live train tracks ^^
