Tens of passengers were stranded high on a Singapore railway track after their train suffered a power fault......
Err, no - this was not a train power fault but rather a significant power supply failure which took out long sections of both the East-West & North-South lines seemingly centred around the Jurong East junction.
And was it beyond the research capabilities of the journalist(s) involved to note that this problem involved the Singapore MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) system not just 'the railway'.

From the BBC:
Tens of passengers were stranded high on a Singapore railway track after their train suffered a power fault.
Video shows a group of passengers high up on a bridge, queuing up in a single-line, as they were forced to walk along the tall track back to a station.
SBS Transit, the train's operator, said all passengers safely disembarked and power is progressively being restored.
