The continuous noise added with the idea of losing one&#8217;s privacy is not very comfortable. However, in Singapore, this does not seem like a problem. Recently, a video of a train with windows that become opaque as it approaches residential buildings is going viral on social media. The futuristic-looking train runs in Singapore and the windows automatically dim to cater for the railway line&#8217;s proximity to residential areas. The train is Singapore&#8217;s Bukit Panjang Light Rail Transit (LRT), also known as Singapore&#8217;s first light rail, according to the Land Transport Authority, a Singapore government agency website. &#8220;The smart misting glass windows of these trains are well-known over the Internet, with netizens intrigued by this innovative feature to protect the privacy of residents living adjacent to the LRT line,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sgtrains.com\/train-c801.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SGTrains<\/a> (Singapore Trains) website added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Watch the video below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A train in Singapore with windows that automatically blind when passing residential blocks. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/geGtxuKB4E\">pic.twitter.com\/geGtxuKB4E<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Fascinating Footage (@FascinateFlix) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FascinateFlix\/status\/1613145202792845313?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 11, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The video was shared by Fascinating Footage on Twitter.
