Mumbai-Gorakhpur Antyodaya Express derails, none hurt

A coach of the Antyodaya Express heading from Mumbai to Gorakhpur derailed in a Western Ghat section in the early hours of Thursday, disrupting rail traffic on the route, Central Railway officials said. No casualty was reported in the incident.

The second last coach of the train, on its way to Gorakhpur in Uttar Pradesh, derailed around 3.50 am between Kasara (which falls in Thane district) and Igatpuri (Nashik), a Central Railway official said.

“All the passengers of coaches halted on the bridge were evacuated through vestibules, which connect the coaches, and shifted to a relief train,” he said. From Igatpuri, the Central Railway has arranged a special train which would carry all the passengers to their destination, he said.
