Chattogram, Nov 21 -Movement of vehicles on Chattogram Kalurghat Bridge got disrupted from Monday evening after a guard van of a freight train got derailed.
Around 5:30 pm, a guard van at the rear of a train heading towards Chattogram derailed on the bridge, said Anupam Dey, station master of Gomdandi Railway Station in Boalkhali upazila.
“It was returning to Chattogram after carrying furnace oil to Dohazari Peaking Power Plant. The train however managed to leave for the port city with all other compartments except the last one where a guard would sit with a handbrake,” he said.
