Taipei: Taiwan High Speed Rail Corp. (THSRC) plans to resume normal operations on Tuesday, after Tropical Storm Danas caused a partial suspension of its bullet train service south of Taichung on Monday morning, the company said in a statement.

According to Focus Taiwan, the bullet train operator provided service until 3 a.m. Monday, following disruptions of the line’s power supply caused by debris that fell on tracks after Danas made landfall in southern Taiwan as a typhoon at 11:40 p.m. Sunday.

At 5:40 a.m. Monday, THSRC decided to cancel service south of Taichung that had been scheduled to begin at 6 a.m. until noon Monday due to the ongoing strength of the storm and the blowing of debris onto its tracks.

By 9 a.m., the company assessed that conditions were sufficient to follow the schedule it had previously committed to for Monday, and began running trains between Taichung and Zuoying, Kaohsiung at 9:40 a.m.
