Dec 13 2013 (16:02) 90262/Vasai Road - Churchgate Semifast Local | BYR/Bhayandar (6 PFs)

Ritzraj~ 1474 blog poststrain no. 90260, virar-churchgate fast local arriving bhayandar at 8:45 am overshot the platform no. 6 today morning. I was at the platform waiting to board the first class coach of this local as usual. The signal was green when the train entered the platform. However, when I saw it zipping past me, I knew there was some problem because the speed was twice the normal at that point. Although the motorman had applied the emergency brakes by then, but still the local had overshot the churchgate side end of the platform causing all the passengers to run towards that direction to board their normal coach. The women passengers must have had big problem since it is not possible for them to board other than ladies coach during peak rush.

In this case action would of course be taken against the concerned motorman...
