Service restoration Trains passed through the disaster area in eastern Odisha state, where a collision between three trains resulted in at least 275 deaths and 1,200 injuries, less than two days after India's worst rail tragedy in more than two decades.
The Accident on Friday, when a passenger train struck a stopped freight train, crossed the tracks and struck another passenger train travelling in the other way close to the Balasore area, appears to have been caused by signal failure.
On Sunday evening, the railway ministry said on Twitter that trains had started running on the same line following two days of rescue and repair work.
Additionally, despite certain limitations, an Indian Railways officer told Reuters on Monday that they were operating nearly properly.
The officer stated, "Trains are required to control their speed and proceed slowly for a specific distance."
The Central Bureau of Investigation should take up the investigation into the disaster's cause, according to the Railway Board of India, the country's highest governing authority.
Ashwini Vaishnaw, the minister of rail transport, told reporters, "We have to move towards normalisation [...] Our responsibility is not yet over."
The Coromandel Express, travelling from Kolkata to Chennai, is believed to have left the main track and entered a loop track, a side track used to park trains, at a speed of 128 kph (80 mph), colliding with a goods train that was also stopped on the loop track.
Because to that collision, the Coromandel Express's engine, first four or five coaches, and final two coaches of the Yeshwantpur-Howrah train, which was travelling at 126 kph on the second main track, were struck.
