Unmanned Indian Train Travels Over 70km on Runaway Journey

A freight train in northern India traveled nearly 45 miles without a driver, reaching speeds of up to 46 miles per hour, before being stopped using emergency brakes and stones on the track. No injuries were reported, and an investigation is underway. This incident follows a similar one in 2018 when a train carrying passengers rolled for several miles before being stopped. India's extensive rail network, one of the largest in the world, has faced safety challenges, including a deadly rail disaster in June 2019.
