TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Taiwan’s “most beautiful local train” — the EMU900 imported from South Korea — will start service in early April, in time for the Tomb Sweeping Holiday, reports said Saturday (March 6).
The first two carriages, made by Hyundai Rotem, arrived in Hualien by ship on Oct. 24, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Christmas holidays, engineers from Germany were unable to travel to Taiwan to fix a speed reduction problem, CNA reported. As a result, the original plan to launch the trains ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday had to be canceled.
