Causes of MRT breakdown

I now learn that the train breakdown can occur due to:

a) signal fault
b) track fault
c) power fault
d) train fault

What I am unable to learn is - why are these faults occuring now, when the system was running well for over 30 years?

Could it be due to

a) equipmment failing due to age
b) over loading of the system
c) poor maintenance
d) lack of engineering know how?
