The animal was struck by a train somewhere between Nagrakata and Chalsa in Jalpaiguri’s North Bengal region. Loco pilots applied the emergency brakes as soon as they saw the elephant approaching the railway tracks, which saved its life.

The video was tweeted from the official Twitter account of Northeast Frontier Railway’s Alipurduar Division. “While working 03150Dn KanchanKanya Exp spl at 17.45 hrs today, Alert LP Sri D.Dorai & ALP Sri P. Kumar noticed One Tusker adjacent to track at KM 72/1 between Nagrakata-Chalsa & applied Emergency brake to control the train & save it [sic],” the caption read.
