Passengers of the CSMT-Gorakhpur Antyodaya Express had a close shave as the train derailed in the middle of an over 100 feet high viaduct between Kasara and Igatpuri stations in the ghat and was stopped in time by the alert train drivers.
The prompt action by train drivers Om Prakash and Ghat train driver Dhaman Kumar, who was in the banker locomotive immediately brought the train to a dead halt and the Divisional Rail Manager SK Jain said that the drivers will be rewarded suitably for their action. It is an over 100 feet deep ravine and if the coaches full of passengers had slipped down, it would have led to an unprecedented tragedy.
