Passengers of the Secunderabad- Bhubaneswar Visakha Express had tense moments on Sunday night when smell of kerosene wafted through compartments.
The train was brought to a halt near the Piduguralla station in Guntur district.
A technical team rushed to the spot and inspected all bogies.
Later, they found that the smell was emanating from oil leaking from the engine of the train.
Ac cording to the sources, passengers in the S-7 bogey of the Vishaka Express noticed the smell of kerosene first and pulled the chain.
First, when the train driver C R Naidu inspected the compartment, he reportedly had said that he did not find any kerosene or diesel in the compartment.
When passengers insisted on a thorough checkup, the local police and Piduguralla railway station staff inspected the train engine and other compartments.
Later, they found a broken diesel pipe in the engine.
The train was later attached with the engine of a goods train and continued its journey.
There are about 2500 passengers in the train.
