LAHORE: Four bogies of a train on Wednesday caught fire while parked at the Harbanspura station, with one completely destroyed while three were partially burnt.

Rescue teams reached the site on time and were able to douse the fire.

In late March, two people were killed and 10 injured as a Karachi-bound passenger train Shalimar Express collided with an oil tanker leading to a huge explosion.

The engine and five bogies of the train, including the luggage compartment, and a power plant caught fire in the accident.
