Incidents
On 19 February 2025, a collision occurred between the KA 302 freight train, a motorcycle, and a Suzuki Carry pickup truck carrying liquefied petroleum gas cylinders at the level crossing located adjacent to the station.[3] This crossing suffers from poor-quality asphalt and congestion. According to the nearby crossing guards, the bar gate had lowered, and the train driver had given a stop signal with a red flag, but the motorcyclist forced through nonetheless, causing the pickup truck to become trapped on the railway tracks.
