KOTTAYAM: Hours after the restoration of train traffic between Ernakulam and Thrissur, which was disrupted after a goods train derailed at Puthukkad, the traffic along Ernakulam – Kayamkulam stretch was disrupted after a high-voltage overhead power cable snapped and fell onto New Delhi-bound Kerala Express at Kothanalloor near Kuruppanthara here on Saturday.
According to Railway officials, the incident took place around 4 pm. As the traction cable has been set up with a system of auto cut off in case it snaps, no danger was reported and passengers in Kerala Express were safe.
