摘要
槟城升旗山缆车服务因电力分配故障于12月26日下午2时15分中断。故障由异物引发，影响电机驱动，系统安全机制启动，缆车随即自动降速运行以疏散乘客。期间，公司安排缆车低速运行及吉普车服务协助乘客返回山下车站。经技术团队检修并更换故障部件后，缆车服务于当晚6时30分恢复正常运营。槟城升旗山机构就事件致歉，并对游客的耐心表示感激。
GEORGE TOWN, Dec 27 — Penang Hill Corporation (PBBPP) said the temporary disruption of the Penang Hill Funicular train service yesterday was due to a power distribution problem affecting the motor drive, which was caused by a foreign object.
It said in a statement that the incident began at 2.15 pm, and as the system involves high voltage, essential services had to be completely shut down to replace the affected power unit.
“The incident activated the built-in safety mechanisms in the funicular, causing it to automatically operate at reduced speeds to transport visitors before the system shut down completely to replace the malfunctioning unit.
“Visitor safety is a priority for the funicular railway and immediate transportation was provided for visitors to return to the Penang Hill Lower Station using both funicular cars operating at reduced speeds and the Penang Hill jeep service,” said the statement today.
PBBPP said that it allowed technical teams to thoroughly inspect the system and that the funicular service resumed normal operations at 6.30 pm.
It apologised for any inconvenience caused and appreciated the patience and understanding of all visitors and stakeholders throughout the disruption. It also expressed its gratitude to all parties for their assistance.
“PBBPP is committed to maintaining the highest safety and operational excellence standards for all visitors to Penang Hill,” added the statement. — Bernama
