Patna: A goods train split into two parts in Bihar on Saturday.
The bizarre rail mishap took place after the train’s coupling broke near the Kharia-Pipra halt on the Bhagalpur-Jamalpur section, reported IANS.
After the train’s coupling broke, 10 coaches and the engine moved forward, leaving 20 coaches behind.
The incident, which occurred in the morning, affected regular train operation on the up and down lines for several hours.
The 10 forward coaches were taken to Kalyanpur station, while the remaining 20 were transported to Sultanganj station to clear the tracks.
The goods train, which split into two parts while moving at high speed, narrowly avoided a major accident due to quick actions of the driver and the guard. Their presence of mind prevented the train from derailing, ensuring that no damage occurred to other trains or people around the that place.
Once the tracks were cleared, train services resumed with the Danapur-Sahibganj Intercity being the first to run from the Jamalpur side.
