Badulla bound train from Colombo had derailed between Rosella and Hatton railway station on Thursday evening (25).
A senior official in the Nawalapitiya railway control room said only the observation saloon of the train had derailed and that the train proceeded after detaching it. The derailed observation saloon was rerailed by 3.30 am yesterday and the train service was back to normal. However, the passengers expressed concern about constant derailments and requested the Railways Department to look into it. They warned of the possible danger of a major accident if it was ignored.
