    THE Bukit Panjang Light Rail Transit (BPLRT) was down for nearly 24 hours, with services resuming fully at 4.30 pm on Tuesday after an electrical fire broke out on Monday.

    Train service resumed partially at 12.30 pm on Tuesday but only for the outer loop Service A from Senja to Petir, with Land Transport Authority (LTA) and SMRT engineers and technicians working through the night. Services on the inner loop, anti-clockwise Service B restarted around four hours after Service A.
