Comilla: Train services of Dhaka and Chittagong and Dhaka-Sylhet resumed early Saturday after a suspension for about four and a half hours due to derailment of a train in Comilla on Friday.  

Comilla railway station master Shafiqur Rahman said six wheels of the engine of the Chittagong-bound ‘Nasirabad Express’ train veered off the track at Jangalia near Moynamoti Railway Station at about 10:10pm, halting train movement on the two routes. However, no causality was reported.

However, the train services on the two routes resumed at about 2:30am after a relief train from Laksam rushed to the spot and salvaged the derailed engine, said Shafiqur Rahman.
