在 1 月 14 日（星期二）晚上，
車務控制中心發現一列西鐵綫的列車，停在朗屏站一段時間仍未開出，亦未能經無綫電聯絡列車車長，遂指示車站職員到場確認情況
車站職員走到列車駕駛室，發現列車車長失蹤，但有一名身穿車務部制服的人士，倒臥在高架路軌對開的街道上
緊急服務人員隨即趕到現場，而車務控制中心確認列車機件並無異樣，安排其他職員將列車開走，避免進一步影響列車服務，事件中沒有乘客受傷
及後證實一名西鐵綫列車車長，在執勤時不幸離世
事件現由機電工程署及警方接手調查， 我們感到十分難過，並向往生者家人致以慰問
港鐵公司亦會為該名列車車長的家人，提供一切可行的協助

At 14th Jan (Tue) night,
a West Rail Line service was found standing at Long Ping Station for a prolonged period of time, long after the time for departure. The Operations Control Centre was unable to communicate with the train captain on board through radio. Members of the station staff were therefore dispatched to assist
Station staff was unable to find the train captain in the driver’s cab, whilst a person in uniform was found lying in the street just beneath the railway viaduct
Emergency services arrived at the scene immediately whilst the Operation Control Centre arranged the service to operate by some other staff members as to prevent further delay to the West Rail Line Services. No passengers were injured in this incident
A West Rail Line train captain was later confirmed dead during her driving duties. Police and Government officials of Electrical and Mechanical Services Department have started their investigation in the incident. Our thoughts are with the victim’s family and friends at this time of tragic loss
The #MTR Corporation will provide all necessary assistance to the family of the train captain
