SINGAPORE: Northbound train services from Ang Mo Kio to Khatib MRT stations were disrupted for about 50 minutes when a train developed a fault and stalled around 7pm on Wednesday.
According to an SMRT spokesperson, the train had to be pushed to Yio Chu Kang station by another train travelling from Ang Mo Kio station.
Some 1,800 passengers onboard both trains subsequently alighted at Yio Chu Kang station at about 7:30pm.
SMRT said commuters were kept informed about the service disruption through announcements in the trains and at affected stations.
The public was also informed through MediaCorp Radio's Traffic Watch service.
SMRT apologised for the inconvenience caused and said northbound train services resumed at around 7.50pm. - CNA/vm
