    I thought it was out on appeal and was also not aware that Peter is the new Tony... just a random remark. I am quite sure he can fix HK's problems from anywhere.

    so i presume one less 1989 built metro-cammel set of trains (ironically, their former factory site in washward heath, birmingham has been knocked down for HS2 depot) on the east rail now, will they introduce the new successor trains which are made by korean manufacturers which has been delayed for 6-12 months- hyundai quicker now?

    My presumption is that as the derailment happened close vinicity within Hung Hom station, the train would be travelling at lower speed and braking in the process, if the case that the derailment happened mid section between stations or even worse longest stretch between stations which is fotan to university and much greater speed, then the causalties and possible fatalites would be significantly more likely.

    No, but there’s definitely a fire in Kowloon Bay Expo EMax 4/F

    Such a bad year for the MTR! Derailment in the new switching tests, vandalism from protesters, and now this derailment...
