Engine is more intelligent than its driver.
Be Fair Thursday, 05 December 2013 07:34 AM
at least the train wouldn't have been late...........
Rasa Thursday, 05 December 2013 09:58 AM
This must have been a remote controlled train.
roshan Thursday, 05 December 2013 11:16 AM
May be its another LTTE diaspora's bogus propaganda against our great nation. No such thing has happened!!
The God Father Thursday, 05 December 2013 11:24 AM
Nonsense, Somebody would have taken for a joy ride and would have Jumped off the Train at the Ratmalana Railway Station.
moorkara Thursday, 05 December 2013 11:28 AM

sam Thursday, 05 December 2013 11:31 AM
Now there are so many ghosts in sri lanka
Common Sense Thursday, 05 December 2013 11:43 AM
It is amusing as the driver and the assistant have been interdicted so fast without a proper inquiry when thuggery, corruption and murder are ignored.
Sivah Thursday, 05 December 2013 11:54 AM

Engine Drivers will have no work in future if done in a better way
Goofy Thursday, 05 December 2013 12:33 PM
No way. These are Hunslt diesel locomotives powered by Rolls Royce engines. They are over 50 years old and still good.
Goofy Thursday, 05 December 2013 12:35 PM
Well the engine drive and the assistant drive are in the wrong for leaving the loco unattended. My questions, what was the operators at the central room at Maradane doing as they could see the movement of this runaway loco on the panel.
m.m.usoof Thursday, 05 December 2013 12:39 PM
1.45 am. Midnight. What were they doing until it reached mt. Lavinia.

poornima Thursday, 05 December 2013 04:48 AM
Hard to believe the train went all that way without hitting a stopped train on the way

Chinese Engine ?
talk.sense Thursday, 05 December 2013 04:31 AM
This shouldn't be so amusing, look what happened recently in Canada when lives were lost by a runaway train. A proper enquiry needed to make sure this doesn't happen again.
SCK Thursday, 05 December 2013 04:44 AM
Train drivers' job is at immense risk since this proves that trains can travel without drivers. "Auto Driver".
zeylanicus Thursday, 05 December 2013 03:45 AM
Most probably a trade union action will come pretty soon against the interdiction
CITIZEN Thursday, 05 December 2013 04:54 AM
I think, Sri Lanka was only short of ghosts driving trains. Now, we have that also! What's more, we are an "All-in-One" nation!!
Wild Boar Ghost Thursday, 05 December 2013 05:02 AM
How pathetic .
kokis Thursday, 05 December 2013 05:03 AM

Ghosts from Peraliya after the tsunami - remember, the driver of that train died at the wheel.
Serendib Thursday, 05 December 2013 05:19 AM
Now the so called BBS(bodu bala sena) would say that was a conspiracy by the British govnt.

Can you please ask the able Minister of Railways for the reason.
A$f Thursday, 05 December 2013 05:46 AM
I had heard about AUTO PILOT, now its on a different manner AUTO DRIVER...................don't know what will happen in future.....
Sammy Thursday, 05 December 2013 05:58 AM
If the train had "automatically" started and moved then why should the driver and assistant be interdicted?
M A Pillai Thursday, 05 December 2013 06:08 AM
What is your fixation with BBS ad the British govt ? Are you a kalu sudda ?
Haka Haka Thursday, 05 December 2013 06:28 AM
International conspiracy, diaspora, Cameron, India, US.....mmmmm.....ok, the whole world
