Coaches of an express train running between Nashik district and Mumbai got uncoupled at Kasara in neighbouring Thane on Saturday morning, in which no passenger was hurt, a railway official said.
The train resumed its journey after 40 minutes when the coaches were re-attached, he said.
The Panchavati Express train that began its journey from Manmad junction in Nashik district and was on its way to Mumbai, got uncoupled at Kasara railway station, about 128 km from Mumbai, Central Railway's chief public relations officer Swapnil Nila said.
The incident occurred when the train was moving out of the Kasara station around 8.40 am, he said.
"The train was uncoupled between coach number four and five. We will check why the coaches got uncoupled," he said.
The uncoupled coaches were again attached and the train left for further journey within 40 minutes, Nila said. "The coupling between the two coaches was not broken. If it was not intact, the train would not have left for Mumbai within
