According to the Department of Railways, a tree had fallen onto the railway track in the vicinity of the station, causing an obstruction to train movement along the line.
Heavy rain and strong winds have caused several trees to fall onto the Kelani Valley railway line between Kosgama and Avissawella, disrupting train operations in the area.
Railway officials stated that steps are being taken to remove the tree and restore normal train services as soon as possible. Passengers using the route are advised to expect delays until operations return to normal.
