Kolkata-Sairang Express Derails in Assam, India: Four Slightly Injured; in a Circulating Video the Driver Says the Emergency Brake Failed
A passenger train derailed in India's Assam state early on November 11: Train No. 13125, the Kolkata-Sairang Express traveling from Kolkata to Sairang in Mizoram, left the tracks at Digaru station, with its locomotive and five coaches derailing and four passengers suffering minor injuries.
The Northeast Frontier Railway said the accident happened at 6:54 a.m. at Digaru station in Kamrup (Metropolitan) district, on the outskirts of Guwahati. The train was being received into the station to allow the Guwahati-Jorhat Jan Shatabdi Express to pass first, and the railway said the locomotive pilot could not control the train's speed, causing the locomotive and five coaches to derail. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said all passengers were safe, four had sustained minor injuries and were receiving care, and an inquiry was under way.
A video said to have been recorded inside the locomotive cab has circulated online, in which the driver can be heard saying in Hindi that the signal was red, that the emergency brake had been applied but was not working, and that brake-pipe pressure was not dropping. The video's authenticity has not been confirmed, and the Northeast Frontier Railway has not commented on it; its own statement said only that the pilot could not control the train's speed. The exact cause of the derailment awaits the investigation's findings.
