Title - Alert gateman averts rail accident in city

LUCKNOW: Alertness of a railway gateman averted a train tragedy on Friday. The gateman Om Prakash saw three persons taking out pendol clips from the railway track at around 10.35 a.m. at Sadar gate of the station. The alert gateman informed the station officials immediately. Though the miscreants ran away, railway officials recovered 22 pendol clips, which are used to hold the tracks together, from the spot. "We immediately stopped the movement of trains on north line," said Amitabh Kumar, station manager. The line was restored after 11.10 a.m. The trains on the line were made to run on the south line. Senior divisional operations manager (DOM), NR, Vikas Chaubey awarded the gateman.
