Shimla: The Shimla-Kalka Shivalik Express that leaves for Kalka at 5.50 pm derailed near the 103 Tunnel in Shimla today. Though it could not be confirmed whether there was any casualty, sources in the Railway Police said bogey number 4 in the train went off the track after the train came to a screeching halt. Reportedly, a migrant labourer was walking on the track, and the driver applied sudden breaks to save him, which caused the derailment. Sources said the migrant too could not be saved.
