In a close shave for passengers on Saturday, the speeding Delhi-Goa Rajdhani Express train derailed inside the longest tunnel on the Konkan Railway after hitting a boulder. Fortunately, there were no injuries or casualties. Traffic was restored at 10.27 am the same day. However, a number of trains had to be detained along the stretch due to the accident.
