A major mishap was averted after a holiday special train from Barauni in Bihar was halted near Manmad when one of its wheels broke midway while on the run. The train, on the way to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus in Mumbai, was stopped immediately without injuries to any passenger but the incident caused delays on the line. Following passenger complaints on Twitter, railway teams from the Bhusawal division distributed biscuit packets and fresh food to the commuters who were stranded for close to three hours.

The incident occurred between Pimar Khed and Nandgaon stations in Bhusawal division of Central Railway at around 8:20 am on Sunday. After halting the train, the guard found the second rear wheel of one of the coaches broken. The train was then split to remove the coach with the broken wheel and the section was cleared by 11:55 am. Passengers in the coach were asked to shift to a new coach.
