Close shave
Train movement on the Sugauli-Raxaul section of East Central Railway was stopped for over 30 minutes when a passenger train hit a tractor trolley between Sagauli and Ramgarhwa railway stations around 8.25am en route to Raxaul. Sources in the railways said no one was injured in the incident and the locomotive had hit the trolley. The tractor was trying to cross the railway track from an unauthorised point when the accident occurred. Railway personnel, with the help of residents, removed the damaged tractor trolley from the track after which the train resumed its journey at 9.05am.
