Abnormal sound from wheels: Vande Bharat halted at Bharwari in UP

PRAYAGRAJ: Varanasi-bound Vande Bharat Express (train number 22436) was halted at Bharwari railway station — in UP's Kaushambi district — under Prayagraj division of North Central Railway on Friday after the loco pilot heard some abnormal sound from the wheels of this self-propelled train.

According to chief public relation officer, NCR, HS Upadhayay, “The loco pilot of the high-speed train heard some abnormal sound from the wheels of the first coach and for checking the same, the train was made to stop at Bharwari station."

The staff members checked and found some metal piece attached to one of the wheels and the same was removed, Upadhayay said.

However, the entire train was checked thoroughly and after that the train was allowed to move towards Prayagraj Junction.

The train reached around two hours behind the scheduled time of 12:08pm and after around ten minutes, it made its onward journey for Varanasi.
