Dhaka’s rail link with northern districts restored after five hours

Rail communications between Dhaka and northern districts were restored Saturday morning after five hours of suspension following derailment of a bogie of a  train in Joypurhat.

The rail communications resumed around 10:45am after a relief train from Ishwardi removed the bogies from the track.

Dhaka-bound ‘Nilsagar Express’, Panchagarh-bound ‘Drutojan Express’ and Chilahati-bound ‘Simanto Express’ got stranded at Akkelpur and Santahar Railway Stations respectively following the derailment.
