Great coverage guys! Thankfully CR could route the Up traffic through the Dn line as the tracks are separated.

We can see the flood lights set up along the accident site - to enable round the clock recovery operations.

This is a 140 ton Gottwald breakdown cranes - the largest on Indian Railway. Originally six were ordered - how many are there on the network now?

It relieves the main bogie on which the crane is mounted, by taking some weight off it, while all of them are being transported together.
