On Sunday afternoon in Tokyo an Odakyu train bound for Shinjuku passed a building that was on fire quite close to the tracks. A police officer pushed the emergency stop button at the nearest crossing causing the train to stop automatically. Unfortunately the train stopped right next to the building that was on fire. Now for the best part the operations center for Odakyu didn't bother to inform the train's driver not only the trains location, but for reasons only known to them couldn't bring themselves to tell him that the roof of the train had caught fire.
Why think of the passengers safety when keeping them in the dark and trapped on a burning train. Personally, if I'd been been on that train I would've found the emergency door release and let the passengers out of the train.
