Kelana Jaya LRT line resumes operations after power disruption
No injuries were reported in the incident that left a train stranded between two stations.
PETAJINGA: The Kelana Jaya Light Rail Transit (LRT) system returned to normal service around 10:25 am today after a power cut at the Universiti station earlier this morning. Rail operator Rapid KL expressed regret for any disruption caused by the incident. The power outage left a train stuck between the Taman Jaya and Universiti stations. No one was injured in the event.
To ensure safety, passengers were transferred to another train and rerouted to the nearest station. Rapid KL apologized for the disturbance and announced that it had removed the affected train from service while conducting an investigation into the cause of the outage.
A witness reported hearing a boom before the train came to a sudden stop, leading to several people losing their balance and falling. The train remained stationary on the tracks for approximately 20 minutes before Rapid KL staff assisted passengers in boarding an alternative train on the opposite side of the tracks.
