Yah... in NTV i had observed that engine was from MLY shed...i am not sure with loco Apr 14 2012 (10:14AM) ↑⇑ ↓⇓ ←→ Arkya Chatterjee1992 videography** 4068 blog posts 3416 correct pred (60% accurate) ![]() Thats really pathetic!! Why was the loco made to run even after it caught fire??? It might have endangered the life of the loco pilots, as well as the passengers.. I guess its not complet fire... but the journey was not safe....if ant thing went wrong?

The wind would easily help the smoke and fire to spread to the next compartments fast.. The same thing happened as per press. By the time it reached Miryalaguda for loco change,the smoke spread to 2 compartments.

Very irresponsible on the part of railways to run loco fully loaded with Diesel (if it was one). Why to compromise on safety in such a manner? Even this is alos a SF...may be LP was inspired with that movie.... Reeall its a good luck of LP and Passengers in that train Apr 14 2012 (10:29AM) ↑⇑ ↓⇓ ←→ Arkya Chatterjee1992 videography** 4068 blog posts 3416 correct pred (60% accurate) ![]() Just imagine!! If the diesel storage tank have gone in contact with the fire, the loco would have erupted, and the nearby coaches would have also engrossed in the fire... Thank God that a major mishap was bunked.. I hope there was not much casualty.. |
