A series of incidents on the Central Railway network lead to chaos and frustration among commuters

An irate woman commuter barges into the motorman’s compartment at Diva station
An irate woman commuter barged into a motorman’s compartment at Diva station, following a series of disruptions that resulted in rush hour chaos on the Central Railway network on Wednesday morning. The incidents included a train delay caused by a last-minute platform change, alarm chain pulling near Badlapur, and a technical snag near Bhandup.
Expressing her frustration, the woman stated that the train was more than 25 minutes late and abruptly switched platforms from 2 to 4, causing confusion among passengers. “We requested the motorman to stop the train for a longer time, and in my attempt, I ended up in the motorman’s compartment. By that point, the train had already started moving, but it stopped again to let me off. I was then directed to the ladies’ compartment and later sent back to Diva from Kurla (to file a case),” she narrated in a viral video. Railway police have since filed a case against her for unauthorised entry into the motorman’s cabin.
