FIREFIGHTERS were called out to a fire this afternoon only to discover the culprit was a steam train passing through Waverley Station.
The service received two calls from concerned passers-by shortly after 3pm today who mistook the rising steam for smoke and believed that a building was alight on Waverley Bridge.
Three fire engines were scrambled to the false alarm at 3.15pm today.
