Berhampur: Passengers on the Dibrugarh-Kanyakumari Vivek Express near Berhampur railway station were terrified after seeing smoke billowing from the bottom of a coach.
After pulling the chain, the passengers exited the train.
A Railway official later clarified that the smoke was caused by brake binding, as a sack became stuck in a wheel of the train's coach S 10. "We took the sack off the wheel and used a fire extinguisher." "The train came to a halt for about 15-20 minutes," the official said, adding that a thorough inspection will be performed at Berhampur station.
On July 7, three coaches of the Falaknuma Express caught fire while crossing the Yadadri district of Telangana.
