Odisha train accident: Several trains cancelled, diverted or short terminated

After the massive train accident in Odisha’s Balasore where several coaches of two passenger trains were derailed, killing at least 30 people, several trains which take that route have been cancelled, rerouted, or partially cancelled. The train accident took place near Bahanaga Station in Odisha’s Balasore district. It involved three trains — the Shalimar - Chennai Coromandel Express (12841), a Bengaluru-Howrah train (12864), and a goods train. While National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) teams have been deployed to the accident site and rescue operations are underway, many trains that were scheduled to begin their journey on June 2 and were expected to pass through that route were either cancelled, diverted, short terminated (stopped before reaching their destination) or short originated (to begin from a later station than their usual station of origin).
