Searching the forum will give you plenty of results. It's not that people only now step on the track. And we don't know your preferences either. In terms of nature and serene spots, the area between Bukit Timah station and Buona Vista has something to offer.
All spots that are easily accessible (Bukit Merah station, the bridge near Rail Mall) will be packed on weekend. But just a few hundreds meters further down it's quiet again, though not free of people.

if you know where king albert park is, there's an entrance there that you can take.. but.. it's going to be crowded with people no matter where you go. so don't think you'll be able to get anything other than random people vs the background. 
unless you're shooting macro there.. maybe you can see some crickets!

2 or more days would allow for slower exploration, without the rush. More opportunities to shoot during the golden hours if you wish to
Yes the entire length from Tg Pagar to Woodlands can be done in one day. My friends and I started from 8am at Tg Pagar and finished 5.30pm at Woodlands. The time could be shorter if not for the frequent stops we took for taking pictures, 1 hour lunch break at Rail Mall, and many small stops to cool down under the shades in the afternoon as the temperature was at a scorching 34 deg C. The nicest and most shaded stretch is from Bt. Timah to Bt. Panjang. From Bt. Panjang onwards there are very little shades and the afternoon heat can really be a big challenge. Furthermore the sceneries are not that nice.
Other interesting stretch would be from Tg Pagar to Buona Vista. Here you'll pass by the largest flyover crossing above the rail, with the entire length close to 200m. This is the Portsdown Ave flyover linking Queensway to AYE.

Thanks all for the information. I do know about a lot of people now but it's not like they will keep it open to public forever. I was planning from King Albert Park in the direction to Buona Vista and maybe further down to near Bukit Merah. But is the opposite direction towards Rail Mall better? Never been there before.
