Train and bus communication with several districts remained suspended for about a couple of hours when a train rammed a bus at a rail crossing in Birampur upazila on Tuesday night. Nobody was wounded but the truck was mangled, police and railway officials said. Eyewitnesses said, a Dinajpur bound truck loaded with fertiliser suddenly stopped on Birampur level crossing due to engine problem at 8:30pm. Meantime, intercity train Borendra Express bound for Chilahati hit the bus at 8:45pm creating panic among the pedestrians. The rail and road communication was restored after removal of the wreckage of the truck at about 11 pm.
