<p>In a bizarre incident, the engine and three bogies of a running train got separated from the remaining around 20 bogies and travelled a few kilometres in Thiruvananthapuram on Wednesday.</p>.<p>Netravati Express train (Train no. 16,346) from Thiruvananthapuram central to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus met with the incident. No major mishaps occurred as the train just started and running only at a low speed. A probe is on into the incident to find if there were any lapses in the coupling process, said a Railways spokesperson.</p>.<p>The train, with around 20 bogies, departed from Thiruvananthapuram central by around 9.30 a.m. Within a few kilometres, the connection between the third and fourth bogies got detached and the engine and three bogies proceeded further and stopped near the next station, which was only a few kilometres away.</p>.<p>Railway spokesperson said that technical experts immediately reconnected the bogies and the train resumed journey after properly checking the couplings. The train got delayed by around one hour.</p>.<p>A similar incident reportedly occurred at Kollam district recently. Lapses on the part of the mechanical team involved in coupling could be the reason, said railway sources.</p>
