Kelana Jaya LRT line resumes operations after power disruption
No injuries were reported in the incident that left a train stranded between two stations.
Shortly after 10 am today, the Kelana Jaya LRT line returned to regular service after a power outage at the Universiti station earlier in the morning. Rapid KL, the city's rail operator, issued an apology for the temporary disruption, acknowledging that it caused inconvenience to passengers. The incident left a train temporarily stuck between the Taman Jaya and Universiti stations, with no reports of injuries.
To ensure passenger safety, Rapid KL transferred affected riders to another train, which then shuttled them to the nearest station. The operator stated it had removed the affected train from service and was conducting an investigation into the incident. A witness recounted hearing a loud boom before the train came to a sudden stop, causing several people to lose their balance and fall.
The train remained stationary on the tracks for about 20 minutes before Rapid KL staff assisted passengers onto a replacement train on the opposite side of the tracks.
