In which an LPG gas cylinder was kept in the middle of the railway track along with a flammable substance and white colored chemical in a glass bottle.

The driver of the passing train applied emergency brakes after seeing the cylinder lying on the track. But due to the speed, the engine of the train collided with the cylinder and it jumped and fell far away. It was fortunate that the cylinder did not explode while colliding with the train, otherwise the railway track would have been uprooted by the explosion and the bogies along with the engine would have derailed.

Investigation started and track also started

During the accident, the train was stopped for an hour and the officials were informed.

Investigation started and after collecting evidence, the filled gas cylinder of eight oz which was damaged after colliding with the train was seized and the Janak team also confiscated the chemical and white powder filled in the sack.

Before this incident, a truck fell on the railway line from a height of 40 feet on the Gujaini railway track, through which Chitrakoot Express was about to pass.
