[Reporter Huang Mingtang/Taitung Report] In response to the 3-day holiday on New Year’s Day in 2012, there were a large number of people returning home from Taitung. Legislator Liu Chaohao then tried to fight for the Taiwan Railway Administration to open a second wave of additional trains between Taitung and Taipei, a total of 6 times. EMU3000 trains are designed to increase transport capacity. Ticket bookings are expected to open at 00:00 on the 24th (Saturday). Folks in need should pay attention to relevant announcements from Taiwan Railways.
Liu Chaohao said that the strong earthquake in Taitung in September this year caused damage to the railway bridge between Fuli and Yuli in Hualien.
Thanks to the hard work of the colleagues of the Taiwan Railway Bureau, it was finally repaired and opened to traffic in advance on December 28 before New Year's Day. The Taiwan Railway Bureau also opened two additional Taipei-Taitung real-name trains on New Year's Day holidays to transport passengers.
