The
All India Running Staff Association (AILRSA) express its sincere
condolence to the kith and kin of those people who were accidentally
killed while walking on the main line track in which Sahara Patna
Rajyarani Express train run through the Dhamara Ghat railway station
Khagaria of Bihar on 19.08.2013.
AILRSA is deeply
saddened to know that the helpless Loco Pilot and Asst.Pilot of the
train were mercilessly thrashed by the irate mob who vents their anger.
Both of them are in a critical condition, battling for life at hospital.
Contrary to the presumption of people a train can't be
stopped like a road vehicle e.g.bus, lorry, car even when emergency
brakes are applied. A train travelling at the permitted maximum speed
say about 100 kmph, may stop after travelling about 850 meters after
emergency brakes are applied.
Public to be educated not to wait or walk in railway track
where trains will run in high speed. Where ever curve, cuttings etc
available Loco Pilots will not be even to see 100-200 M ahead of the
train running track.
Even in the unmanned Level
Crossing many accidents are happening due to the carelessness of the
road users. Train running in 100 KMPH will pass 1 Km in 36 seconds.
Media should bring awareness among the public and the innocent Loco Pilots should not be scapegoat.
