There seems to be a derailment a day on the narrow gauge Matheran Hill Railway. On Friday morning, the latest attraction — the air-conditioned coach introduced on the line earlier this month — derailed, leading to disruption of services for a while. The train had derailed on Thursday afternoon, too.

"The train derailed near Jummapatti at 10.35am and was put back on track on 11.50am. Two wheels of the AC coach went off track, but there were no injuries or major damage," a CR spokesperson confirmed. The train had also derailed on Thursday afternoon around 3.30pm, making this the fourth derailment post-monsoon. While it was the luggage coach that went off tracks on Thursday, on Friday it was the first class coach that derailed.
