Five KRL Train Services Delayed Following Fire in Tanah Abang Residential Area

KAI Commuter reported that the incident caused delays to five Commuter Line services, with a total accumulated delay of 132 minutes, according to KAI Commuter Public Relations Manager, Leza Arlan, on Friday (5/6/2026). To maintain safety, KRL services on the affected route were temporarily suspended, and the Overhead Catenary System (LAA) was deactivated while firefighters worked to extinguish the blaze.

Following the completion of the firefighting process at approximately 06:10 WIB, the overhead power lines were re-energised to resume Commuter Line operations, Leza stated. KAI Commuter implemented operational adjustments for Commuter Line service No. 5027 (Cikarang - Kampung Bandan) as a result of the fire, with some services being diverted to terminate at Manggarai before returning to Bekasi Station.

Currently, KRL services heading towards Cikarang and the Airport Commuter Line (Basoetta) have been able to pass through the area again. KAI Commuter is continuing its efforts to normalise operations and clear the backlog of train services caused by the fire.
