Authorities quickly responded, shutting down power at 7pm to platforms 4, 5, and 6, where the bird was spotted. This necessary measure, while crucial for the bird’s rescue, resulted in several trains being forced to terminate their journeys prematurely on the main line, as the affected platforms could not be used.
