KARACHI: A road roller rammed into Khyber Mail near the Drigh Road Railway Station on Monday.

The road roller rammed into the first coach just behind the train’s engine when it was passing the PAF crossing.

Most of the damage was done to the road roller and there was hardly any damage done to the train. All the passengers on the train were also said to be safe.

The road roller driver said that he never saw the train and kept on moving at normal speed before the collision brought him to a forced stop.
