Vandalised telecommunications cable interrupts Cape Town passenger rail system
Metrorail said that the Western Cape’s passenger rail service was disrupted on Wednesday by a telecommunications outage.
The cause of the outage was a vandalized optic fiber cable on the Diep River line.
The rail operator said the cut cable had no copper inside, but it continued to be vandalized.
Metrorail’s Nana Zenani said: “Technicians have introduced a partial train service in response to the vandalized optic fiber cable. Unfortunately, the train arrangements will exempt one to this train service.”
