Passengers on a Mumbai Metro train on the Yellow Line 2A were surprised and inconvenienced last week when the speeding train skipped a station, without any notice or announcement. Metro officials said that the halt at Malad station was skipped due to an emergency on the road below where a car caught fire. The station was evacuated due to the fire.
“I was travelling from Andheri West to Malad. As I stood near the door waiting to alight at Malad, I was surprised as the train never slowed down. I realised that the train was travelling at quite a high speed. It skipped Malad and halted at the next station, Mith Chowky. This happened around 7.40 pm on Saturday,” commuter Soumit Naik said.
