In Sydney, it's March 4, and here's what is going on. A light rail carriage in Sydney burst into flames during peak hour, sparking major delays across the network. Firefighters quickly responded after smoke and flames were spotted coming from the roof as it moved between Central and Surrey Hills. The tram and nearby station were safely evacuated before crews arrived to put out the fire. No one was hurt in the incident, which happened on a busy route. Firefighters faced chaos with the Randwick and Juniors, Kingsford lines halted and replaced by buses. Transport officials urged everyone to plan for extra travel time. The damaged carriage is now headed to a workshop for a full investigation into what caused the blaze. Crews confirmed the fire was fully extinguished on site. Meanwhile, NSW Transport is reminding riders to watch for announcements and check displays for the latest service updates as disruptions continue.
