Freight Train Derailments in Gujarat and Tamil Nadu Disrupt Train Services
Two freight train incidents occurred in India, one near Dahod, Gujarat, where two wheels of an empty freight train derailed, delaying two Delhi-bound trains. Another incident in Tamil Nadu involved seven empty coaches rolling unattended from Jolarpettai Junction and derailing near Thamaleri Muthur, disrupting Bengaluru-Chennai services. Railway authorities responded promptly to restore operations and prevent accidents. No injuries were reported in either case, and investigations are ongoing.
