Angul: Train services in Dhenkanal-Sambalpur railway section have been disrupted following the derailment of a goods train over a bridge between Angul and Talcher Road early on Tuesday.

According to ECoR sources, the goods train from Firozepur to Khurda Road left Angul station at 2.15 am and derailed 2 km from Talcher Road. Nine wagons of the train capsized while one derailed around 2.35 am.

Flash flood reportedly led to the derailment. While the retaining walls on both sides have been damaged, the track approaching the bridge from Angul has been washed out.

Accident relief trains from both Sambalpur and Khurda Road were rushed to the spot. There have been no casualties reported. Divisional Railway Manager, Khurda Road, is reviewing the restoration and rerailment works.

Crane from Sambalpur will tackle wagons from Angul side and crane from Khurda Road will tackle engine and then wagons from Talcher side. Heavy water flow is still continuing near the washout area. JCB has been mobilized to create a diversion so as to reduce water flow for filling the breach, the ECoR said.

Following the incident, several trains have been cancelled, one short-terminated and routes of eight others diverted:
