Heavy downpour from the northeast monsoon caused a landslip and falling boulders on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway track between Coonoor and Kallar. This forced the cancellation of NMR services between Mettupalayam and Coonoor on Friday. Railway staff worked to clear the track and restore services in the challenging terrain.
