The Dhaka-bound Kishoreganj Express remained stranded at Kishoreganj Railway Station on Wednesday after its engine broke down, leaving passengers facing delays and raising concerns over disruption to the train schedule.
The train was scheduled to depart for Dhaka at 4:00 PM, but it had yet to leave the station nearly one hour and 45 minutes after its scheduled departure time.
Kishoreganj Railway Station Master Khalilur Rahman confirmed the delay around 5:45 PM.
He said the train remained at the platform due to the engine failure, adding that it was not yet possible to confirm when the engine would be repaired or the train would resume its journey.
Passengers waiting at the station were facing inconvenience as the departure remained uncertain. The prolonged delay also raised concerns over possible disruption to the train's schedule.
