Due to the skill of the freight train driver, a major accident was avoided. The freight train left Tirupur for Erode at 1:00 pm yesterday. From 'Goodshed Track', the freight train will have to cross the Erode - Tiruppur route track and switch to the Tirupur - Erode track.


Tirupur: In Tirupur, there was a sudden commotion as the freight train and the express train came on the same track.

The freight train left Tirupur for Erode at 1:00 pm yesterday. From 'Goodshed Track', the freight train will have to cross the Erode - Tiruppur route track and switch to the Tirupur - Erode track.

The freight train from Goodshed track to Erode-Tirupur route came on the same track as the Coimbatore Express from Erode to Tiruppur in a visible hole last time.

The driver of the freight train was shocked, following the search, hit the 'horn'. Subsequently, the Coimbatore Express slowed down and stopped. As the station approached, the speed of the train was already low. The freight train departed slowly, via the Tirupur-Erode track.

Thereafter, the 'Green Signal' was given to the Coimbatore Express. Thanks to the clever operation by the freight train driver, a major accident was avoided.
