Gaya (Bihar): Three rear bogies of Nagpur-Gaya Diksha Bhommi Express derailed at the outer signal of
Gaya railway junction under Mughalsarai division of East Central Railway (ECR) on June 8, railway
sources said.
Three rear coaches of the train jumped the track while the train was about to reach the Gaya station,
they said.
There was, however, no report of any casualty as the train was at a slow speed since it was approaching
the station, they said.
The derailed coaches included two sleeper bogies and AC coach, the sources said.
Chief Public Relations Officer of ECR A K Chandra told reporters in Patna that the movement of trains
on both UP and DN main lines have not been affected since the train was entering the Gaya station
through an additional line.
He said the cause for the derailment was being ascertained.
