Train traced after 17 days of its missing in Bihar

Patna: Train had been traced finally on Thursday after 17 long days of its missing from one railway division in Bihar.

The Gorakhpur-Muzaffarpur passenger train “went missing” from Hajipur on the night of August 25 after the derailment of a goods train led to the diversion of several trains on other routes.

Arun Malik, the divisional manager in the Samastipur railway division said that passengers quickly got off as this train began taking a new route and the train was reported “missing”.

He said, “We finally traced it today at a railway station in another division.”

Malik said no police case was registered regarding the “missing” train since the railways were themselves looking for it.
