A train from Sylhet hit a truck at Moghbazar Wireless Gate Level Crossing in the capital disrupting rail communications for around two hours early Saturday.
However, Police claimed that no one was injured in the incident.
Driver of the vehicle left the truck after it broke down right on the rail tracks before the accident.
The damaged truck was left on one of the railway tracks in the area blocking the way, said Yasin Faruk, Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Kamalapur Railway Police Station.
The Kamalapur-bound Upaban Express from Sylhet hit the truck around 5:00am, said the OC.
“The train pushed the truck over to another rail line next to the first one,” Yasin said.
Meanwhile, Another Mymensingh-bound Balaka Express came from the direction of Kamalapur and hit the truck after a few minutes.
The wreckage of the truck remained on the line as a result of which train movements on the rail line were disrupted for two hours.
