Train operations on the Kiul-Jhajha section were disrupted on Tuesday morning, June 30, 2026. A technical fault occurred in the Overhead Electric (OHE) wire between Mananpur and Jamui stations. This issue affected the down line, causing several trains to run late by several hours.
Which trains were most affected by the delay?
The technical glitch caused significant delays for high-priority trains. The Patna-Howrah Vande Bharat Express, scheduled for 9:50 AM, reached Jamui station at 11:24 AM, delayed by about 90 minutes. Similarly, the Buxar-Tatanagar Superfast Express, scheduled for 9:25 AM, arrived at Jamui at 11:30 AM, with a delay of nearly two hours.
How was the technical issue resolved?
Upon receiving the report, railway engineers and technical teams reached the spot to start repair work. After some effort, the OHE wire was fixed and the track was made safe for movement. Jamui Station Master Nitish Kumar confirmed that the technical problem on the down line was fully resolved and rail operations returned to normal. The railway administration expressed regret for the inconvenience caused to the passengers.
What is the role of Generator Cars in trains?
Generator cars, also known as power cars, provide electricity for lights, fans, charging points, and AC in train coaches. Modern LHB coaches use these cars because they lack space for alternators under each coach due to disk brakes. Usually, two generator cars are placed at both ends of the train, powered by diesel engines, and are maintained by specialized railway staff.
