A vigilant train crew in the Jabalpur division prevented a major collision on 14th August 2024, earning them recognition and honours from railway authorities. The incident occurred on the Bina-Katni route, specifically between the Pathriya (PHA) and Aslana (ANA) stations, a double-line, 25 kV electrified section.
The Indian Railways, in their media statement, said that train no 09063, the Vapi-Danapur Express, departed Pathriya station at 5:12 pm for Aslana. Despite low visibility due to high clouds, the train reached the block section at the maximum permissible speed of approximately 100 km/h. The crew noted odd vibrations in the adjacent UP track`s overhead electrical (OHE) cable, which raised concerns about a problem on the line.
