Communication on Dhaka-Chittagong rail route remained suspended for two and half hours as a train derailed in Chouddagram upazila yesterday.

One bogie of a Chittagong-bound goods train coming from the capital went out of the track at a place between Gunabati and Hasanpur railway stations at 1pm that hampered train movement.

Later, trains running on the route remained stranded at different points causing sufferings to the passengers.

Railway sources said the train movement resumed at about 3:30pm after a relief train from Laksam rushed to the spot and put the derailed bogie back on track.
