The MTR Corporation has said its East Rail line services are gradually returning to normal after it reported extra travelling time due to a person being on the track at Sha Tin station.

At about 7:30am on Friday, the MTR said the total journey time on the East Rail line could be extended by 10 to 15 minutes and that trains were running at between five to 15-minute intervals.

It said that the delays were due to a person being on the track at Sha Tin station, but that the situation had been handled and services were gradually returning to normal.
