The carriage and guard coach of the Howrah-Radhikapur special train derailed near Burdwan station on Monday, making passengers panicky and delaying the train by over two hours.

No one was injured, railway officials said, as the train had slowed down as it advanced the station around 10.40am.

Eastern Railway chief public relations officer Ekalabya Chakraborty said a technical team was sent to fix the snag. The train left minus the derailed coach.
