Chennai: A Southern Railway official reported that early on Tuesday, four empty coaches of an Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) derailed close to the suburban Avadi area.

The incident interrupted traffic on the busy road and caused delays to several services, although no passengers were involved.

"It was an empty rake from the Avadi maintenance car shed," a Southern Railway official said.

"There has been an empty rake derailment at Avadi. No passengers were involved as it was coming from Avadi car shed. Top Railway officials have rushed to the spot and restoration work is in full swing. Inconvenience caused to passengers of other trains delayed on the route is regretted," Southern Railway said.

EMUs are used as local passenger services.
