As for the derailment of the Khopoli local at Badlapur on October 8, residents from the slums nearby say a stray piece of track from a consignment dumped by the railway's Public Works Department near the cabin had probably cause the mishap.
According to a slum-dweller, one of the smaller pieces of track was pushed on to the siding track and used as a see-saw by children over a fortnight ago.
``When the Khopoli local chugged in, the piece of track, which by then had moved ahead, got lodged in the wheels of the train, derailing it,'' he says.
