Furthermore, the train is said to consist of  60 bogies in total. However, no one was wounded in the incident.

The incident took place near Kokrajhar Railway Station, where the train's engine was delinked from the bogies; however, no serious accident occurred because the train was running at a low pace and there were no passengers on board.
