Wed May 07 12:10:55 UTC 2025: ## Several Train Services Cancelled and Short-Terminated in Tamil Nadu Due to Bridge Demolition
**Erode, Tamil Nadu, May 7, 2025** – Several train services in the Karur-Tiruchi sector of Tamil Nadu will be cancelled or short-terminated on May 13th due to the demolition of a road overbridge between Muttarasanallur and Tiruchi Fort railway stations.
The affected services include the full cancellation of seven passenger and express trains connecting Salem, Karur, Tiruchi, Mayiladuthurai, and Erode. Two additional passenger trains will be short-terminated at Karur Junction, and one express train will originate from Karur instead of Tiruchirappalli.
Passengers are advised to check train schedules for updates and make alternative travel arrangements. A full list of affected train numbers and revised schedules is available [presumably from The Hindu’s website, although this needs to be inserted/inferred depending on the article’s original context]. The demolition is expected to cause significant disruption to rail travel in the region.
