Coaches of the CSMT-bound Manmad-Mumbai Panchavati Express got detached in Kasara on Saturday morning, affecting rush hour services of local trains and other express trains arriving in the city. The coaches were re-attached within 40 minutes, after which the train resumed its journey. No casualties were reported.
“The incident occurred when the train was leaving Kasara station around 8.40 am. The train was uncoupled between coach number four and five. They were coupled back by 9:02 am and the train was ready by 9:15 am. We will probe why the coaches got uncoupled,” a Central Railway spokesperson said. He clarified that the coupling didn’t break and had just unlatched. If it was not intact, the train would not have left for Mumbai within 40 minutes,” he said.
