The intensity of the rain has increased in the ghats. Incidents of stones and sand flowing with the water have increased leading to such incidents. Since the rail route passes through mountains in the Monkey Hill area, such incidents are happening frequently. This has not affected the rail traffic and the trains are plying as usual.
