2 MRT trains break down

Two trains of the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) suffered breakdowns yesterday.

A train bound for Taft station stopped at the GMA-Kamuning station at around 6:27 a.m., the MRT management said.

The train unloaded 75 passengers, who waited for another train that arrived two minutes later.

At past 2:30 p.m., another MRT train bound for North Avenue station stalled at the Ortigas station, affecting 350 passengers.

MRT officials said worn-out electrical sub-components caused the glitches.
