Freight train bogies derail at Shadra station, delay Shalimar Express

LAHORE: Three bogies of a freight train derailed Monday morning at Shadra railway station while being shifted from one track to another, railway sources said.

As of reporting time, authorities are engaged in trying to remove the derailed bogies from the track in order to clear the route for other trains.

Shalimar Express — set to depart from Karachi — has consequently been delayed.

The down track, however, has been cleared, railway sources stated.
