Rough start to the day.
Trains along the East-West Line were initially delayed due to a "power fault" before public transport operator SMRT announced that there would be no train service between Boon Lay and Queenstown.
MRT announcements at around 9:50am on Sep. 25 told passengers to expect delays of around 20 minutes between Tuas Link and Outram Park.
Then, at 9:57pm, SMRT announced that there is no train service between Boon Lay and Queenstown.
Free regular bus services were made available between affected stations.
