This article discusses the delay and technical issues faced by passengers of the Patna-Katihar Intercity Express train at Danapur railway station.
On Monday, passengers at the Danapur railway station had a tough time when the engine of the Patna-Katihar Intercity Express broke down unexpectedly. This incident happened in the middle of a cold wave, leaving many travelers waiting on the platform for about an hour.
The train was already running late by an hour and a half when it reached platform two. As soon as it arrived, the engine faced a technical issue and could not move further despite the efforts of the engine driver. This situation caused a partial disruption in services on the down line as well.
To manage the situation, the station management quickly rerouted other trains to platform one. After a lot of hard work by the technical team and the driver, the engine was fixed after an hour, allowing the train to leave for Katihar.
Passengers were understandably worried and frustrated due to the sudden breakdown, especially the elderly and young children who had to wait in the freezing temperatures. Finally, the train departed from the station nearly three hours late due to the earlier issues.
Once the engine was repaired, both the railway staff and the passengers felt relieved. The station master confirmed the total delay and assured that operations would return to normal soon.

- Passengers waited for about an hour in harsh cold conditions.
