Chandpur-bound Meghna Express, Sylhet-bound Udayan Express and Dhaka-bound Dhaka Mail, which were stuck at the station due to the disruption, would depart anytime, he added. Four carriages of the Dhaka-bound Mahanagar Godhuli Express went off the rails at the level-crossing near Paharhtoli Railway Station around 3:30pm on Wednesday, said Paharhtoli police OC Ranjit Kumar Barua. Since then, all trains had been told to take the 'down line' from Paharhtoli to Fouzdarhat, East Zone's Divisional Railway Manager Manjurul Alam Chowdhury told reporters. Mahanagar Godhuli's four carriages went off the rails in the afternoon when it was changing tracks to take the 'down line', he said. They were 'damaged a bit', Chowdhury said and added that a relief train was on its way to move the derailed carriages for services to resume.
