印度媒体援引铁道部发言人夏尔马的话说,当地时间19时左右,一列从加尔各答开往金奈的客运列车在奥迪沙邦巴拉索尔地区的巴哈纳贾火车站附近脱轨,10多节车厢散落四周,一些车厢落在对向轨道上。随后,一列由班加罗尔开往加尔各答的客运列车从对向轨道驶来并撞上脱轨的车厢,造成该列车的几节车厢也脱轨。
The accident occurred around 7:20 pm local time near Bahanaga Bazar station in Balasore district, about 171 km northeast of Bhubaneswar, the capital city of Odisha.
According to officials, the Coromandel Express, which runs from Kolkata to Chennai, hit the Yashwantpur-Howrah Express, which derailed and toppled onto the adjacent track. A cargo train was also said to be involved in the accident.
