The MTR Corporation is warning of possible delays on the Tsuen Wan Line during Tuesday evening’s peak hours after cracks were found on the tracks between Tai Wo Hau and Kwai Hing stations in the morning.

It's the second time in a week that rail services have been delayed after cracks on the rails were found.

Journeys on the Tsuen Wan line were slightly delayed by up to two minutes as carriages had to travel slower between the affected stations. The rail firm also warned of longer waiting times at platforms.

In a statement, the corporation said while it has conducted temporary repairs, it will look into the issue after services end for the day.
