  • 5 years ago
NewsX: The expolision took place just 20 minutes after the pilot engine of the Express train passed the railway track between Taraiya and Guraru station around 11 pm. The Rajdhani Express was halted at the Taraiya station, Gaya Railway DSP Sunil Kumar told. The pilot engine was damaged, as per reports.
Since the 2003 Howrah-Delhi Rajdhani accident in Aurangabad, where over 100 people died, Indian Railways started running pilot engines ahead of the trains. Pilot engines run with a gap of an hour ahead of the trains.There are no casualties reported but the traffic on the Gaya-Mugalsari railway line, part of the East Central Railway, has been disrupted since the blast. Trains on the way to Delhi, the Bhubaneshwar-Delhi Rajdhani and Sealdah-Delhi Rajdhani, were stuck at Gaya Railway station.Moreover, all trains between New Delhi and West Bengal capital Kolkata passing through the Gaya Grand Chord have been reportedly stopped till the track is repaired.
