Did a loco pilot stop a train to buy samosas? Western Railway explains what really happened

Western Railway has dismissed a viral video alleging a train stopped for samosas. The railway clarified the incident involved a goods train, not a passenger service. This goods train was already halted for scheduled engineering work in the Rau yard. The Assistant Loco Pilot stepped out to buy food during this authorized operational stoppage. Western Railway stated the video was deliberately misrepresented to create a false impression.
