Railway personnel and engineers were immediately deployed to the site to carry out repair work and assess the extent of the damage. “The affected track is being repaired, and efforts are on to restore normal train operations as soon as possible,” an official said.
Despite the disruption, passenger trains between Anakapalli and Visakhapatnam continued operating on the unaffected track, preventing significant travel delays. However, some freight movements have been impacted.
Passengers traveling on this route are advised to check train schedules for any last-minute changes. Authorities are expected to complete repair work soon and fully restore services. The exact cause of the incident is under investigation, and officials are also examining whether the train was overloaded beyond permissible limits.
