The train driver forgot to stop in Enköping.

According to SJ, it is not unusual. It happens a few times a year.

At first they were possibly going to back off, but they obviously ignored that, says a witness to Aftonbladet.

Travelers on SJ’s train to Enköping had the chance to watch the platform go by outside the window during Thursday afternoon. The train driver forgot to stop with the train that was due to roll into Enköping Central at 16.55.

– I was going to go and pick up my daughter. She said they forgot to stop in Enköping. At first they would possibly back down, but they obviously didn’t care. She had to drop out in Västerås. It was a bit murderous, says the father of one of the passengers.

“Happens sometimes”

According to SJ, it sometimes happens.

– It is the human factor. It happens a few times a year. It’s nothing dangerous. All travelers affected will get their money back. We can only regret, says Anders Edgren, SJ press communicator.
