                              Not the tunnel of love.

A driverless metro train left the Üsküdar station en route to
Samandıra but after passengers disembarked at the Bulgurlu
station the train passed by the Ümraniye, Çarşı, Yamanevler,
Çakmak and İhlamurkuyu stations without stopping (!).

Passengers alarmed by the train missing their stops pressed
the emergency button but to no avail.  Finally, the train came
to a halt near (but not at) the Altınşehir station.  Passengers
found a way to get off the train and walked along the tracks 
in the tunnel (!) to the Altınşehir station.

On one of the videos taken by the stranded passengers, 
someone alerts the others, saying "Hurry up and get off!
There's a train coming from behind!"

Oh yeah, sometimes there's an unscheduled express.
