Train commuters stranded due to arson

Hundreds of Cape Town commuters have been left stranded on a cold, rainy morning after Metrorail was forced to suspend its train services on the Khayelitsha-Kapteinsklip line. This follows incidents of arson last night and this morning. The Heideveld ticket office was set alight last night and a train coach went up in flames this morning at the Khayelitsha station. Metrorail spokesperson Riana Scott says the service resumed at ten this morning. The arson attacks are being investigated.
