New Delhi: A train engine derailed and landed in the middle of a field in Bihar 's Gaya district on Friday evening, leaving locals both amused and puzzled. The incident occurred in Raghunathpur village, between Wazirganj station and Kolhna halt, but fortunately, no injuries were reported in the incident.

The engine, which was traveling without any coaches, lost control while on a loop line en route to Gaya, veering off the tracks and coming to rest in the field.
A curious crowd gathered after the derailment trying to decipher the sight of the engine in the middle of the field. 

Pictures of the engine went viral on social media, with people humorously claiming that trains were now being used to plough fields.
A railway relief team later arrived at the site, and efforts were still on to bring it back on the tracks. 

Attempts to contact the Wazirganj station manager, but there was no response.
