Glitch hounds MRT-3 operations anew

MANILA, Philippines – Metro Rail Transit Line 3 (MRT-3) passengers were inconvenienced anew Thursday morning when a south-bound train encountered a glitch in Makati City.

In an advisory, the MRT-3 management said the train encountered technical issues between the Guadalupe and Sen. Gil J. Puyat (Buendia) stations at 6:08 a.m.

By 6:47 a.m., the problem was addressed and normal operations resumed.

“We apologize for the inconvenience,” MRT-3 management said.

On Wednesday morning, another MRt-3 train stalled between the two station in Makati, forcing hundreds of passengers to walk on the tracks to the nearest station. (Editor: Gilbert S. Gaviola)
