Depending on the situation. Train 6330 stopped on the second track of Skhodnya station at 12:43. At about 13:20, D3 trains began running between Khovrino and Kryukovo on the fourth track without stops. There were very strong delays on D3 in both directions. And at 17.35 the electric train ET N095 traveling from Moscow to Konakovo with flight number 6612 caught fire on the stretch between the station. Khovrino and the Levoberezhnaya platform. The cause of the fire was a malfunction of the train: the high-speed switch (BV) burned out, and the fire occurred on the principle of the car, which is the tail one. As it became known, the train had just returned from a major overhaul from the Krasnoyarsk plant. The management of the Oktyabrskaya Railway, under threat of dismissal, prohibited the disclosure of any information. At the same time, a switchman named Zodarozhny has already been identified, who is the head of the operation department.
