While the city of Mumbai reeled under another bout of rains on Tuesday and Wednesday, disrupting flight and rail services, this one train seemed to have defied the bad weather condition quite blatantly when it zoomed passed the Nallasopara station.

So much so, that it ended up splashing the accumulated water on the tracks onto the people waiting at the station, ruining the day for them as they got completely drenched.

Watch the video below:

Railway officials, however, denied that the train was moving at a high speed, saying that it must have seemed so in the video because it was shot from a close distance, reported NDTV. The actual speed may have been lower than what seems to be, they said.
