I was going home from work and about to take the escalator down when the staff told us the station was closed and casually said there was a bomb. It's always something at that station.
- Also they just had the trains going through the station but not stoping. I was on the train when it went through.
  Like am I missing something? Why would you run trains through if there's potentially a bomb?!
  Honestly my assumption at the time was that someone got assaulted or something.
