Noticed that some MRT cabins or buses look a little different lately? That’s because they’ve been decked out in special SG60-themed designs featuring iconic Singapore landmarks.

To mark the country’s 60th birthday, the Land Transport Authority has teamed up with the National Day Parade 2025 Executive Committee, SBS Transit and SMRT to transform selected parts of our public transport system into moving tributes to Singapore. But not every train or bus gets this SG60 makeover, so keep your eyes peeled for these limited-edition rides.

The decor sticks to the familiar red and white colour palette of the Singapore flag, with adorable illustrations of national icons like Marina Bay Sands, the Singapore Flyer, the Merlion and more. The train floors also mimic lush green fields dotted with colourful flowers, a nod to Singapore’s "City in a Garden" vision.

You’ll spot these SG60-themed designs on selected MRT trains across all lines, and on bus services 43, 97, 117, 157, and 960. A handful of MRT stations, including Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Bukit Panjang, Dhoby Ghaut, Marine Parade, Punggol, Serangoon, and Woodlands, have also joined in the festivities, sporting similar SG60-themed decor and large wall murals that make great backdrops for snapping a few patriotic selfies.

These decorations will be available from now till August 31, 2025. In the meantime, look out for the other SG60 decorations happening around Singapore, including the huge Lego mural at National Museum Singapore and colourful container display at Tanjong Pagar Terminal.
