In an incredible incident, four compartments of a train reportedly ran about 200 m on a railway track without an engine in Jharkhand’s Sahebganj district, but none were injured, a railway official said on Monday.
The incident took place on Sunday evening at a siding near Barharwa station under the Malda rail division and was a part of a regular shunting operation, he said. Malda divisional railway manager Vikash Choubey, when contacted, said the compartments did not run automatically but were pushed by an engine.
