Two separate freak incidents were reported on Thursday morning. The Mumbai-Ahmedabad double-decker train and a BEST bus were involved with no injuries in either case. While the double-decker train got uncoupled near Surat, losing two hours of journey time, a wet-leased BEST bus faced a brake failure near August Kranti Maidan and collided with a tempo. In the first incident, two coaches of a double-decker express train travelling between Ahmedabad and Mumbai got uncoupled at Gothangam Yard in Vadodara on Thursday morning. According to railway officials, two coaches of train number 12932, the Ahmedabad-Mumbai Double Decker Express, parted near Gothangam Yard in the Vadodara Division at 8.50 am.
