The cause of the train accident at the Chennai Coast Railway Station has been revealed.

Last Sunday, an electric train from the railway station to Chengalpattu arrived at the first platform of the beach railway station.

The driver immediately jumped out of the engine compartment and survived.

Railway officials rushed to the spot and expedited the rescue operation. Railway police said the train driver was slightly injured and no passengers were in any danger.

The accident caused a stir at the railway station. Thus the train service was affected for some time. Immediately after this the trains were operated as usual from the alternate platform. The electric train in the accident had a total of 12 compartments, including the engine. Of these, 10 compartments were immediately disassembled and disposed of, and the engine compartment that crashed into the walkway was disposed of at 6 p.m.
