Arrah, Bihar witnessed a derailed Sikkim Mahananda Express on Sunday morning, but thankfully, no casualties or injuries were reported. The incident occurred approximately 200 meters from platform number two, with the engine, SLR coach, and H-1 bogie going off the tracks. Station Manager N.K. Rai, the first to reach the spot, acted swiftly despite being suspended by the Assistant Depot Railway Manager.
The train, carrying 15483 passengers from Alipurduar Junction to Delhi, had stopped at platform number two at 4.12 am when it seemed to experience a technical issue. This led to the signal shifting towards the Sasaram line, triggering the derailment later on the up line. Railway personnel immediately launched rescue and restoration operations, restoring track and signalling systems before normal train movement resumed.
