Now, an alleged video which has surfaced online shows the inside of the Coromandel Express just minutes before the deadly train crash. The video was reportedly captured by one of the passengers of Coromandel Express. It has been uploaded by Odisha TV on its official Twitter handle.
The video shows sanitation personnel mopping the floor of an AC coach. Many passengers can be seen sleeping on their berths. Then, a sudden jerk hits which might have thrown the person shooting the video off balance. And after that, it’s all a blur. All you can hear is people screaming.
