I was waiting at Hughesdale for a city bound train just before 10 am
on Thursday when an announcement came over the PA. Due to a person
being injured at Clayton, city bound trains would be delayed until
further notice as they were waiting for an ambulance. I then drove my
car to Caulfield and caught a Frankston line train to the city.
