A train carrying oil derailed in the Puranapoil area of \u200b\u200bJoypurhat Sadar Upazila, and traffic has returned to normal after 4.5 hours.<\/p>\n
The derailment occurred at 9:45 pm on Wednesday (May 21) and was normalized around 2:30 am, said Joypurhat Railway Station Master Nahida Akhtar.<\/p>\n
Earlier, due to the derailment of the train, train services across the country, including the Parbatipur-Santahar route, were suspended in Joypurhat, she said.<\/p>\n
According to Joypurhat Railway Station sources, an oil train departing from Chittagong left Joypurhat Railway Station at around 9:30 pm. Shortly after, the train derailed a little north of the Puranapoil rail gate at around 9:45 pm. This halted train services in both directions with the district.<\/p>\n
At that time, Dhaka-bound Nilsagar Express, Khulna-bound Simanta Express and a local train to Parbatipur were stuck at the stations. Joypurhat Railway Station Master Nahida Akhtar told reporters that an oil-laden train derailed in the Puranapail area. Train movement in both directions was suspended. Later, a rescue train arrived and normalized the derailed train at around 2:30 am. Train movement in Erut has since returned to normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
