The record

- Heavy rain triggered landslips between Yedakumari and Shirivagilu stations in Sakleshpur taluk, Karnataka, blocking tracks and disrupting train services since Saturday night.
- South Western Railways cancelled several trains on Sunday and Monday, including three services commencing Monday, and diverted others to alternative routes.
- Repeated landslips slowed restoration work, and the Railways made food and alternative arrangements for stranded passengers at stations like Hassan and Subrahmanya Road.
- This has affected connectivity between Mangaluru, Karwar and Bengaluru through the Western Ghats stretch.
What to watch next
