According to AFP on February 26, the Indian Railways said on the 26th that it had ordered an investigation because a freight train full of gravel traveled 70 kilometers without a driver went viral.
The train, which has about 50 carriages, departs from Jammu and Kashmir in the north and heads to Punjab, the report said. After driving 70 kilometers unmanned, it was finally stopped by wooden blocks placed on the tracks.
A spokesman for the local railway company told reporters: "We have ordered an investigation. He also said that no one was injured in the incident.
The **unmanned" train with a speed of 100 kilometers per hour has gone viral on social media.
According to local reports, the incident occurred after the train stopped at a railway station in Jammu and was preparing to change the crew. When the train driver and assistant get off the train, the train begins to travel down a ramp. To prevent accidents, all road intersections along the route are closed.
The report also said the incident was the latest scandalous blow to India's crumbling rail network. (Compiled by Han Yan).
