You can actually see the next station up at this stop, so he might've seen it sitting there getting passengers. It's unclear from the story but it obviously happened within a very quick amount of time so presumably the lights were visible from the next station up. And with that amount of time, no, I would not believe they'd be able to stop the oncoming train--someone would have to go find a station manager or a subway cop, which is next to impossible on the upper reaches of the 1, for starters...
