Dhaka-Khulna train link restored after 7hrs
The train communication of Dhaka with Khulna and the country’s western region restored after seven hours of suspension due to the derailment of a freight train compartment at Ullahpara station in Sirajganj on early Saturday.
A relief train then went there from Ishwardi and salvaged the derailed compartment at about 9:15am, said Sirajganj Bazar Railway Police officer-in-charge Sayeed Iqbal.
The compartment of the freight train, coming from Ishwardi, veered of the track while entering the station at about 3:10am, halting train movement on the route.
