September 8, 2023 Passengers on board an east-bound train were forced to disembark at City Hall MRT station on Thursday night after the train’s cabin was filled with white smoke. The smoke was due to a refrigerant gas leak from the air-conditioning system of the first-generation train, which has been running since 1987, said SMRT Trains president Lam Sheau Kai in response to queries from The Straits Times. The incident took place at about 9.50pm and the affected train was withdrawn from service following the incident.
