NEW WESTMINSTER (NEWS1130) - A series of events led to a scary trip for SkyTrain passengers on the Expo line yesterday afternoon. Passengers on the train from the New Westminster Station to 22nd Street just before five o'clock were forced to take the trip with the doors open.
Drew Snider with TransLink says the train was being driven in manual mode and technicians were repairing the train at the time, and had bypassed the door alarm system, but that's not all.
"We have platform video which indicates that someone actually forced the door open to get on at New Westminster Station and in trying either to force it open or to force it closed, something broke, apparently, and that's why the door remained open as the train was in motion."
He says TransLink is trying to learn more about the rare incident to make sure this never happens again. |
