1) Street Directory
- search for 'Sunset Way' on the road listings
- Look for where the rail comes close to the road

2) Google Maps
- Search for 'sunset way singapore'

There's a path at the front of Blk 305 Clementi Ave 4, which leads to the abandoned railway.

Since u drive, it's easier to start off from here as there's a huge carpark.

Just to be safe, it's an abandoned railway, right?

No trains should operate that line ?

Just drive along Clementi Road and turn to Sunset Way then drive all the way in till u see the railway bridge, u wont miss it, then park yr car at 1 of the HDB open air carpark, need to walk about 5-10 minutes through some grassland (may have mosquitos), then walk across a small fence and climb up (easy climb). The Sunset railway bridge is an abandoned bridge no train will run, but it is a bit broken and maybe dangerous if u want to walk on the rail track, some wood pieces maybe broken due to wear and tear.

If you know where Bio-polis is, or Tanglin Halt, you could gain access easily to railway track.

BUT do watch out as the track is active, there will be trains going through periodically.

Hope this info helps!
