A tree near Marine Lines catches fire after falling on overhead wires
A viral video clip of a tree catching fire after bending and falling on overhead wires near Marine Lines has got the Central Railway (CR) officials back on their toes. The CR on Sunday asked its teams to look for trees dangerously leaning on such wires and trim them as per requirements.
A senior railway official said, "Yes, we undertook tree-trimming activity this week. Such trees and branches were trimmed at about 10 places this Sunday. The work was carried out using a special crane, three tower wagons and ladder gangs."
