Note: SMRT have been operating the branch sector of Tanah Merah to Changi Airport as a through line from Boon Lay (Boon Lay - Changi Airport via Tanah Merah) since the opening of Changi Airport station on 2002 until July 22, 2003 due to low demands on Expo and Changi Airport that SMRT reverted this sector as shuttle service where trains from Changi Airport will terminate at Tanah Merah instead of through service where trains will terminate at Boon Lay (Joo Koon was not built back then).<ref>http://www.smrt.com.sg/news/News.asp?N_YYear=2003</ref>{{Clarification needed|date=October 2010}} Similar to the through service, the interval of trains remained as 12 minutes per train.
 
== Rolling stock ==
Three batches of rolling stock are in service on the line, i.e. the [[Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151]], the [[Siemens C651]] and the [[Kawasaki Heavy Industries & Nippon Sharyo C751B]]. These trains operate from the two depots along the East West Line, the Ulu Pandan Depot near Jurong East MRT Station and the Changi Depot after Tanah Merah MRT Station.
