BANGALORE: The railway police on Friday arrested three men for allegedly blocking the railway track, forcing Kolar bound Kolar-Bangalore passenger train (76506) to halt at Byappanahalli station for more than an hour, disrupting other incoming and outgoing trains.The accused were part of a 20-member group, agitating on the railway track, demanding more trains to Kolar. Police identified them as Iliyaz, 30, of Bangarpet, Balakrishna (28) of Bangarpet and Nagabhushan (24) of Malur."We appeal to the public not to indulge in such activities. Blocking the tracks or disrupting the movement of trains unlawfully will end up in disturbing other passengers," a railway press release said.
Cases have been booked against four men in connection with blocking the Kolar–Bangalore Cantonment Passenger (train no. 76506) on Friday near Byappanahalli, which, in turn, disrupted the schedule of many trains.The Railways said passengers unlawfully blocked the track for more than 70 minutes before the Railway Protection Force (RPF) intervened.Five other trains leave Bangalore in the morning around the same time the Kolar-Bangalore train travels towards the city. However, the passenger train has to halt for a few minutes due to a signal crossing at Byappanahalli. On Friday, passengers protested against the delay and demanded that their train be allowed to travel towards the city before other trains and squatted on the tracks.Railway authorities have appealed to passengers not to disrupt train movements that have a domino effect on other trains.
निजामुद्दीन रेलवे स्टेशन पर कोई तकनीकी खराबी आने के कारण दिल्ली से मथुरा के बीच का रेलवे ट्रैक बाधित रहा। सुबह 11 बजे से दोपहर 3 बजे तक ट्रेनों का संचालन रुककर चला। लंबी दूरी की करीब आधा दर्जन ट्रेनें यहां वहां रुकी रही, जो अपने निर्धारित समय से एक-एक घंटे विलंब से चली। इंदौर इंटरसिटी और राजधानी एक्सप्रेस ट्रेन तो फरीदाबाद सेक्शन में सवा घंटे तक खड़ी रही। इसके अलावा लोकल ट्रेनें बाधित हुई। इस तकनीकी खामी के चलते रेलवे यात्रियों को भारी मुसीबत का सामना करना पड़ा।
ST. LOUIS – Two freight trains collided at a rail intersection in rural Missouri on Saturday, triggering the collapse of a highway overpass when at least a dozen rail cars derailed and struck a support pillar, authorities said.None of the seven people hurt in the fiery crash – two train workers and five people who had been in two cars on the overpass – suffered life-threatening injuries, Scott County Sheriff Rick Walter said in a statement.“One train T-boned the other one and caused it to derail, and the derailed train hit a pillar which caused the overpass to collapse,” Sheriff’s dispatcher Clay Slipis said of the pre-dawn crash near Chaffee, about 15 miles (24 km) southwest of Cape Girardeau, in south-eastern Missouri.The collision of the BNSF Railway Co and Union Pacific trains also sparked a fire when diesel fuel leaked from one of the train engines, Slipis said.The crash came...

just over a week after a commuter train derailed in Connecticut, striking another train and injuring more than 70 people during the evening rush hour.On Thursday, a truck crash triggered the collapse of a bridge in Washington state, sending two cars plunging into the frigid Skagit River and raising concerns about the country’s aging infrastructure. Three people were rescued.In Missouri, Wayne Woods told a regional CBS affiliate that he rushed to the scene as soon as he heard the crash to try to halt traffic as he called in the emergency. “We heard the crash and we stepped outside and my son said the overpass was down. Then we heard a car’s tires squealing like it was coming to a stop and then a crash and a horn continuously blowing,” he told KFVS television. “I got over there, the train was on its side. They got the guys out and lifted them down off the train and got them off the overpass. One was kind of bloody and the other one looked like he was pretty shook up,” he said. There was no immediate word on the cause of the crash, and the National Transportation Safety Board said it dispatched a team to investigate the train crash. Television footage and news photos of the scene showed two cars sitting atop a caved-in overpass with rail cars jacknifed and toppled over below. Union Pacific said its train had been primarily carrying auto parts from Illinois to Texas when it struck the side of another train, and that a Union Pacific engineer and conductor were slightly injured, according to spokeswoman Calli Hite. The Union Pacific locomotive and about a dozen cars derailed in the crash, she added. She said the derailment was the second involving one of the company’s trains on the same stretch of track in recent months, after a January 29 derailment that was weather-related. BNSF said that its train, which was 75 cars long, had been hauling scrap metal from salvage facilities and was heading south when it was struck, and that none of the crew was injured.

MUMBAI: Faulty work on overhead equipment (OHE) led to a disruption in Central Railway's services on Friday. Commuters between Kalyan and Kasara were affected the most as more than 50 services were cancelled. A block was taken from 2-4 am to raise the level of OHE inside Parsik tunnel after section switch to alternating current. "The maximum moving dimension of a train was not taken into account when the height of the OHE was raised. As a result, 25 pantographs of eight trains operating on the north-bound fast track were damaged. Because of the incorrectly raised OHE, the pantographs grazed against the tunnel's inner surface," said a senior CR officer. "At least four trains had to be cleared with the help of diesel engines." That there was a fault in OHE alignment... Read more...
was discovered when pantographs of a CST-Ambarnath local and a CST-Kasara local got entangled with OHE near Kalyan. But it took almost four hours for CR officials to identify Parsik tunnel as the primary cause. "In such cases, the spot that causes failure is usually close to the place where the actual failureukuuppik8 takes place," said a CR officer. "But in the present instance, the fault was inside the Parsik tunnel, where it is pitch dark. Also, it is almost 12 km away from the place where pantograph-OHE entanglement occurred." It also baffling that no failure was in train that passed on this stretch between 8 am and4 am, when the block was lifted." A senior official from electrical department said blamed the lack of coordination between the electrical department and open line for the incident. He said, "We had raised the height of the OHE from 4.69 to 4.77 m from rail level. It appears that the open line department too had raised the level of track by 0.22 meter. We are not kept in loop about this development, thus leading to failure" The incident led to chaos at railway stations like, Kalyan-Karjat and Kalyan-Kasara. Badlapur resident Chandrakant Joshi "I am usually y board the train at around 12, 15 pm fromBadlapur railway station but on Friday it took around one and half hours as first local train came at around 1.30 pm at Badlapur railway station and I reached Kalyan railway station at 2.20 pm and that too after many struggle as it was very difficult to get inside the train," V Darshana who works in Fort area said, "I reached Ambernath railway station at around 11 am. But there were no trains for CST till 1.35 pm Rakesh Mutha, another residents of Badlapur who was waiting for local train at Kalyan railway station with his wife and two kids said, "Two days before we had come to meet our relatives due to vacation period and today was going back to home but due to late train now we have decided to stay one more days at relative house and going there".
