Assam Train Derailment: Driver's Audio Raises Questions Over Signal and Braking Failure 🚆

A train derailment at Digaru railway station in Assam's Kamrup district has raised serious safety concerns after a video recorded inside the locomotive surfaced online.

The footage reportedly captures the loco pilot saying that the signal was red and the emergency braking system was not responding moments before the incident.

However, the Northeast Frontier Railway's official statement reportedly attributed the derailment to the loco pilot's inability to control the train's speed.

The locomotive and five passenger coaches went off the tracks. Fortunately, all passengers were evacuated safely, with no injuries reported.

The conflicting accounts have raised questions about the circumstances leading to the derailment and the need for a thorough investigation.
