After striking a buffalo, a passenger train in Odisha’s Sambalpur district derailed, according to East Coast Railway (ECoR). Every passenger was secure. When the animal abruptly entered the track at around 6.25 p.m. on the Sarla-Sambalpur section of the Jharsuguda-Sambalpur passenger special train, four wheels of the coach jumped the tracks, according to a statement from ECoR.
Due to the accident, the buffalo died. Divisional Railway Manager of Sambalpur and his team reached the spot to supervise the operations for clearing the blocked line. The track was declared fit at 8.35 pm for train movement with a low speed of 30 km per hour, an official said.
