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
