A Taroko Express train derailed after hitting falling rocks in the Shuishi Tunnel on the west main line, causing the driver and eight passengers to be injured. Heavy rain following a recent earthquake in Hualien has triggered landslides, with debris causing accidents in the area. The incident occurred close to a previous derailment location, with the engineer suggesting the need for slope maintenance and potentially rerouting railways for long-term safety.
