Kolkata, Jun 7 (PTI) The pantograph of the engine of Coalfield Express broke soon after leaving Howrah for Dhanbad on Wednesday evening, detaining the train for one-and-a-half hours, an Eastern Railway official said here.

Movement of other trains during the period remained unaffected as they were diverted through other lines, the official said.

The 12339 Howrah-Dhanbad Coalfield Express came to a halt at Bamangachi at 5.32 pm after the pantograph of the engine broke, parting the overhead wire, the ER official said.

After repairs and restoration of overhead power, the train left for its destination at 7pm, he said. PTI AMR MNB MNB
