A major accident prevented from happening on Wednesday when all coaches of 13009 Howrah-Dehradun Doon Express got separated from the engine at Khetasarai station of Jaunpur after the engine's clipping broke.
The coaches travelled almost a kilometre before they were stopped.
Another engine from Shahganj was later attached to the separated coaches of Doon Express and the train was departed thereafter.
The train passengers had to wait for hours after which they created huge ruckus in anger.
