Bhubaneswar: The East Coast railway (ECoR) on Saturday clarified that no fire incident was reported in Kanniyakumari-Dibrugarh Vivek Super Fast Express at Bhadrak railway station in Odisha earlier in the day.
“A minor issue of brake binding was detected in a sleeper coach (4th from the engine) upon the train’s arrival at Bhadrak at 9.23 am. The issue was promptly attended to by the Carriage and Wagon (C&W) staff, ensuring the safety and smooth operation of the train. After the rectification, the train departed at 9.43 am,” it added.
Earlier, reports claimed that heavy smoke emanated from the wheels of the train near Rambhila in the district after a brake binding caused a minor fire.
Brake binding, also often called brake seizing or sticking, occurs when a component in the braking system doesn’t properly release after the brakes have been applied.
