Northeast Frontier Railway
Minor Accident Prevented.
----------------------------------
Shri B.Dey, guard of 12436 up Rajdhani express noticed at 06.35 hrs of 16.06.2015 that one Tata safari car was found mounting over railway fencing infringing track due to a road accident in NH-37. He passed the 12436 up Rajdhani express carefully without touching the infringed car at km-29/9-30 in between Panitola and Chabua. Later, 15959 up...
more... Kamrup express arrived at Panitola at 07.00 hrs and was controlled. Track was cleared at 07.55 hrs and 15959 up passed at 08.11 hrs after detention of 01.11 hrs at Panitola.
But Two TV news channels is flashing news that – Rajdhani express dashed a Tata Safari injuring two of its occupants. This is not correct. There had been no contact between the train and the Tata Safari. Even in the visual it is showing the Tata Safari lying near the track after it damaged the railings on the road. The train was moving on its own dedicated path, how can it dash a car plying on road?
