Gas Leak Shuts Lechería Station on Tren Suburbano as Trains Bypass the Stop

Officials cite an accidental rupture in a nearby gas line during excavation.

Overview

  • Lechería station was evacuated and closed until further notice on October 31 after the smell of gas was reported around 9 a.m.
  • Protección Civil and firefighters secured the area and worked on containment as authorities blocked vehicle access on the Tlalnepantla–Cuautitlán road and Avenida La Quebrada.
  • Tren Suburbano said service continues between Buenavista and Cuautitlán without stopping at Lechería and urged passengers to follow official channels for updates.
  • Local authorities reported that an external company's works near the station accidentally perforated a gas duct, triggering the leak.
  • Separately from the incident, the operator warned of weekend frequency changes due to AIFA branch connection works, and the station had been slated for a six‑month rehabilitation project announced earlier in the week.
