THE driver of a train approaching Parkdale station kept going rather than stop when he spied a swarm of wasps buzzing around the platform, Thursday morning.

Metro spokesperson Sammie Back said the driver noticed a “considerable number” of the stinging insects at the station at 10.50am and, after consulting the company, was told to run express.

She said there were no passengers waiting on the platform and those on the train who missed their stop were offered buses back.

The wasps hung around for about an hour before dispersing. Normal services resumed later.
