A brief smoke scare was reported at Churchgate railway station around 11 am on platform number 1 on Sunday, officials said.
According to the Deputy Station Superintendent (Commercial), smoke was noticed emanating from a display-cum-warmer used to keep samosas and vegetable puffs at a stall operated by Seema Pandey.
Preliminary information suggests that no fire broke out and the smoke may have been caused due to overheating of the crust of the food items kept inside the warmer.
As a precautionary measure, a fire extinguisher available at the stall was used to douse the smoke.
A joint inspection along with the electrical staff is currently being carried out to ascertain the exact cause of the incident.
No injuries were reported, and normal operations at the station continued without disruption.
