trial runs with passengers on Thursday, seems “stable and comfortable,” Taoyuan Mayor Cheng Wen-tsan (鄭文燦) said, after two trips on the train.

Cheng took the first train from the airport to Taipei in the morning then made the return trip in the afternoon, along with Legislative Speaker Su Jia-chyuan (蘇嘉全) and some Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) lawmakers.

While some passengers on the trial runs complained about the train stopping abruptly on winding sections of the line, Cheng said the ride was “stable and comfortable” compared with other MRT lines and that the complaints had been few.   [FULL  STORY]
