Thank God no one was hurt! The fire department did a great job responding so quickly. We need to be more careful with garbage disposal near railway tracks though.

This happens too often near railway tracks 😔 Authorities should conduct regular clean-up drives and impose stricter penalties for littering. #SafetyFirst

Quick response by the fire brigade! 👏 But the article mentions two different locations - Mumbra and Pimpri Chinchwad. Could the editors clarify if these are separate incidents?

I pass through Mumbra station daily. The amount of garbage accumulated near tracks is alarming. Hope this incident serves as a wake-up call for better maintenance.

While I appreciate the quick action, I wish the article provided more details about what caused the fire. Was it spontaneous combustion or something else? More investigative reporting would be helpful.
