Trains to Visakhapatnam delayed due to damaged girder

Express trains to Visakhapatnam were delayed on March 17, 2025, after a girder was damaged, reportedly by a truck. The girder was meant to block heavy vehicles from using the underbridge. Trains from Vijayawada were held near Anakapalli for hours. The Hyderabad-Visakhapatnam Godavari Express and the Secunderabad-Bhubaneswar Visakha Express were stopped at nearby stations, causing passenger inconvenience. A goods train's Loco Pilot noticed an issue with the track and stopped the train, preventing a potential accident. Railway officials quickly began repairs, and trains resumed service around 9 a.m.
