I removed bad tire and took a closer look at it. Tube definitely blew up, and looks like at the same spot where tire broke. I'm not sure how I made it to the station, but I didn't notice anything wrong...
Both tire and tube are very old. I don't think they are original, but it has been on the bike for a while. In some spots rubber got glued to the metal rim. I was worrying about spokes poking thru the tape, but looks like that's still holding up.
I took some pictures of the "autopsy".
Here you can see place where tire ripped
This is what inner tube looked like. Try patching that! :)
Marking are still visible. It reads "Specialized Tri-Sport 27x1 1/4 100 PSI 7.9 BAR"
