This line is the first MRT line in Singapore to be completely underground (running in a [[tunnel]] all the way between HarbourFront and Punggol). It is also the first (and so far, the only) line where trains get their power from [[Overhead lines|overhead wires]] above the track, instead of a [[third rail]] beside the track.

All the trains on the North East Line are [[automatic train operation|automated]] ([[computer]]-controlled) and do not have an operator driving the train at the front. It is one of the world's first [[rapid transit]] lines that does not need drivers and is one of three such lines in the MRT network today. The others are the Circle Line and the Downtown Line.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tsd.org/cbtc/projects/SIG_Singapore_AutomaticMetro_en.pdf|title=Singapore Northeast Line|publisher=[[Alstom]]|format=PDF}}</ref>
