I was tracking a train on a certain website and was sure that it wasn't supposed to stop at said station, I pre booked the taxi to the station in advance to get there atleast 5 minutes before the train is due to pass through the station, the station itself is very small, a single island with a track either side, I arrive at the station, tipping the taxi driver generously the fare was £5 something I gave him a £20 note and told him keep the change, i jump out the taxi and cross a little bridge thing and head down the stairs to the platform, as I stood on the platform I hear the rumbling of the incoming train but ahead of schedule?? I look around and see the lights of the train but couldn't tell which side of the platform it was passing, I heard the breaks slam on maybe the driver must have seen me or something and I just watched as the train screeched to a hault far passed the end of the platform even though the train was never destined to stop at the station, did they see me and hit the breaks as a precaution? Should I get there earlier next time and run down the tracks towards the train? I know it's not an ideal reason but I am so tired of running around in circles this is my only way out
