Rain impact: Mangaluru-Bengaluru train service suspended
Mangaluru, June 14: Following a landslide on the railway track between Subramanya and Siri Bagilu due to heavy rains in the district for the last couple ofdays, the train service between Bengaluru and Mangaluru was suspended on Thursday.
Places like Puttur, Sullia and Subramanya have been receiving heavy rains for the last two days. Because of this situation, landslide occurred on the track between Subramanya and Siri Bagilu and train movement on the track was hampered as the mud covered on the track.
Following emergency note from the department, the Karwar-Bengaluru-bound train which left from Mangaluru at 10-50 am stopped at Subramanya and returned to Mangaluru station. In the same way, the Mangaluru-bound train which started from Bengaluru also stopped at Sakaleshpura and returned to Bengaluru.
Railway authorities pressed into action to remove the mud from the track using earth movers. Senior railway officials are reviewing the situation.
