THEY say trains don't stop for anything.
Except a Port Adelaide home game, after a signal failure prevented hundreds of fans from attending the start of Saturday's game against the Western Bulldogs.
The failure was reported by Adelaide Metro's twitter account 40 minutes before the start of the game, and the failure was rectified 25 minutes before the start.
Many supporters were still arriving at the game at the first bounce.
All trains currently stopped due to signalling issue. We apologise for this wait & are working to get trains moving asap. #Update to come

@AdelaideMetroSA @DanWillsTiser I can tolerate being late for work. But missing NTUA after 2 away games in a row is sacrilege @PAFC
