Signalling fault throws KTM Komuter and ETS schedules off track, delays top five hours

A signalling system disruption between Kalumpang and Kuala Kubu Bharu on September 27 caused significant delays to KTM Komuter and ETS services in Malaysia, with some services experiencing delays of up to five hours. The disruption, caused by a damaged system component, affected multiple trains passing through the sector, particularly those to and from the north.

The delay impacted train movements and schedules, including the Rawang-Ipoh Double Tracking upgrade works. KTMB repaired the fault by 5:15am, and services resumed to normal by 5:45am, though some trains still faced delays of up to 30 minutes from their original schedules. KTMB apologized to affected passengers and offered full fare refunds for those who did not continue their journey due to the disruption.
