Jamshedpur, Nov 24: Commuters in the Tatanagar railway section are set to face major inconvenience as the South Eastern Railway (SER) has announced the cancellation of 10 local trains operating from Tatanagar on Tuesday.
The trains affected include Hatia–Tatanagar MEMU, Jhajjaram–Purulia MEMU, Tatanagar–Barbil MEMU, Tatanagar–Barkakana MEMU, Rajkharsawan–Tatanagar, Tatanagar–Badampahar MEMU (three pairs), Tatanagar–Guwa MEMU, and the Tatanagar–Itwari Express.

According to railway officials, several other services will also remain suspended on November 26 and 27 due to operational constraints.
The temporary halt in local train services is expected to significantly impact thousands of daily passengers from Kolhan, West Bengal, and Odisha, who rely on these routes for regular travel.
The disruptions are likely to increase travel challenges for office-goers, students, and traders who depend heavily on these MEMU and passenger trains for connectivity across nearby districts and states.
