2007 by Guest-of-Honour, Mr. Raymond Lim,
Minister for Transport and Second Minister
for Foreign Affairs, at SMRT Bishan Depot.
Some 1,000 participants battled to enter

the most number of people on board a SMRT
train car, bendy bus and a Space MPV taxi.
In conjunction with SMRT Cram Jam!, SMRT
held a Open House at Bishan Depot, where
the public joined guided tours around the
depot and visited a charity bazaar cum funfair,
where the eight beneficiaries of the Fund
took up booths and showcased their programmes
and services for the elderly and caregivers.
