Production

The set of Third Rail was housed inside one of Changi Exhibition Centre's hall, which featured two decommissioned Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151 MRT train carriages (Carriage no. 3095 and 1095 of 095/096) and a specially constructed railway tunnel. The set was also one of the biggest to be built in Singapore.
