In the absence of electricity supply, the train had got stranded and around 40 Railway personnel, including coolies had to manually push the Mumbai Central-Lucknow Suvidha Express back to platform.
Western Railway (WR) has announced a reward of Rs 10,000 to the staff who was involved in pushing back the train manually from the dead end to the platform. The incident happened last Thursday.
