The metro in Bengaluru is a fast electric train that helps people travel around the city.
Sometimes, the tracks need to be checked and fixed to keep the trains safe.

So the train will stop running for a little while that morning.
It will be closed between the Baiyappanahalli station and the MG Road station.
