Train services between Rambukkana and Peradeniya, which were temporarily suspended after earth and rocks fell onto the railway track, are scheduled to resume this afternoon (05), according to the Railway Department.
A train travelling from Peradeniya to Colombo Fort derailed early this morning after a landslide and rocks fell onto the train between Kadigamuwa and Ihala Kotte railway stations.
Following the incident, train services between Rambukkana and Peradeniya were temporarily suspended.
The Railway Department said restoration work on the affected railway track has now reached its final stage.
Accordingly, the 4:35 p.m. train from Colombo Fort to Gampola and the 5:15 p.m. train from Colombo Fort to Peradeniya are scheduled to operate as usual today.
