Following the launch of East West Line Train in 2017,

all upcoming new trains will also have their handrails removed from door passageways and olive-shaped handrails installed in the centre of carriages

MTR Corporation had recently arranged a test that involved hundreds of staff simulating the day-to-day passenger behaviour when getting on and off Urban Lines’ Vision Train to further confirm the effectiveness of the removal of handrails from door passageways

The interior of KTT Intercity Premium and Business Class coaches will be progressively refreshed between mid-Mar and 2019, with barrier-free facilities also set to be improved

There will be no changes to the Intercity train services whilst the work is carried out

Meanwhile, there is a sale of up to 60% off on KTT onboard souvenirs while stock lasts

有關 1 月 11 日（星期四）東鐵綫訊號故障一事　A summary of the signal failure occurred on East Rail Line on 11/Jan (Thu

當日 0912 時，行車控制主任移除一班列車的行車時間表後，發現「列車控制系統」（Train Control System）的螢幕畫面未有更新，便通知車站職員安排已抵站的列車稍作停留，以便諮詢工程人員系統是否失靈

至 0925 時，由於工程人員需重啟系統，控制中心遂暫停東鐵綫的列車服務，但中央廣播聲帶亦一同中斷，故車站職員需改用現場廣播，指示乘客轉乘其他交通工具

第一部應急巴士在 0943 時由九龍塘站開往羅湖站，而由羅湖站往九龍塘站的巴士，則於 1002 時開出

已抵站的列車全數停止服務後，控制中心隨即指示車站職員，到路軌將道岔位鎖定到指定方向，以便清空月台讓停於各站之間的 14 班列車，可盡快落客

但約於 1025 時，分別有乘客逕自打開「緊急門掣」，徒步離開車廂，控制中心唯有暫停安排列車駛回月台，避免這些乘客遭列車撞到

至於 1130 時，工程人員成功啟動「列車控制系統」的後備機制，恢復東鐵綫的列車服務

經過港鐵公司與法國 ALSTOM 廠方調查後，得悉移除列車時間表的功能，附帶不常見的程式碼，導致系統記憶體耗盡。功能於 2003 年隨「尖沙咀支綫」通車，而於「列車控制系統」啟用的五年後而新增，及後於 2006 年、2009 年、2010 年、2012 年，以及 2015 年更新系統時，亦未發現問題

廠商現已更新軟件，避免出現同類問題，而東鐵綫亦預計會於 2019 年年中，改用全新 Siemens Trainguard MT 行車訊號，此前新系統會獨立運作，不會影響日常列車服務
