Monday blues from bad to worse: MTR power supply fault

Many commuters at lunch were forced to take alternative transportation as train services on MTR’s Tseung Kwan O and Kwun Tong lines were suspended due to a power supply fault at Tiu Keng Leng station. Services between Tiu Keng Leng and Lam Tin have also been halted. 

Passengers were not happy to line-up in the rain for MTR’s emergency shuttle buses to get to their final destinations.
