The accident occurs in the Nobboi Degree area on Udaypur Road
Apologising for the situation, Rail Secretary Mozammel Hossain said passengers of the cancelled Lalmoni Express will receive a refund of the ticket price.
Amid the rush, the derailment of a Khulna-bound Sundarban Express west of the Bangabandhu Bridge in Tangail on Friday disrupted services on the route for a three-and-a-half-hour.
And after the situation deteriorated further on Sunday, the rail secretary said the accident coupled with the pressure of Eid passengers meant that trains have not been able to travel at optimal speeds. As a result, trains are not arriving at Kamalapur Station on time leading to the schedule changes.
