The train services on the main line will be delayed due to a technical issue experienced by a Kandy-Colombo train at Daraluwa in Gampaha, Sri Lanka Railways announced.

The “Senkadagala Menike” train plying from Kandy to Colombo Fort has suffered a technical fault, and it is also reported that there is an oil leak from the train engine.

Therefore, all the trains on the main line are being operated on a single track, the Department of Railways said, adding that the trains will possibly experience delays as a result, until the train is restored.
