Moving slowly on restored tracks Monday, trains began passing Bahanaga Bazar Railway Station: the station in control of and nearest to the site of India's deadliest train crash in over two decades.

Railway employees at the small station — suddenly under a global spotlight after the horrific crash that killed 275 people took place barely a kilometre from it — were working to repair broken tracks and resume normal rail operations.

The rail disaster struck on June 2, when a passenger train hit a stationary freight train, jumped the tracks and hit another passenger train passing in the opposite direction near the district of Balasore, in the eastern state of Odisha.

Following non-stop efforts to rescue survivors and clear and repair the track, trains resumed running over that section of the line on Sunday night. Trains were passing slowly by the derailed and mangled compartments, while repair work continued at the track side.
