Fog hits train services

Twenty-five trains to Delhi were delayed and seven rescheduled as a thick blanket of fog enveloped the city on Tuesday after a gap of one week.

Most of the trains arrived one to three hours behind the scheduled, a Northern Railways spokesperson said, adding that they included the Rajdhanis' from Howrah, Rajendranagar (Patna) and Bhubaneswar.

The rescheduled trains, running two to six hours behind the schedule, includes Andhra Pradesh Express, Tamil Nadu Sampark Kranti Express, Mangla Express, Poorva Express, Sealdah Rajdhani Express and Jabalpur Express.

Trains to South had, in fact, been running late ever since a goods train had derailed between Bhopal and Habibgang on Sunday, the spokesperson said.

Northern Railway has restored the service of one out of the 14 trains originally cancelled up to January 31 due to fog
