He then stopped the approaching train by waving his shawl, preventing a potential accident. The incident caused disruption in train services for about 50 minutes, impacting several trains including the Saptakranti, Vaishali Express, Garib Rath and others. The affected trains were either diverted or stopped at nearby stations like Dharhara and Kiul.
