DISASTERS – AN INTRODUCTION

1.0 Definition:

Railway Disaster is a serious train accident or untoward event of grave nature, either on the railway
premises or arising out of railway activity in that area, due to natural or man-made causes, that may
lead to loss of many lives and/or grievous injuries to a large number of people, and/or severe
disruption of traffic, necessitating large scale help from other Government/Non-government and
Private Organisations.

1.1 Types of Disaster causing interruption to train services:

Disater in the Railway context was traditionally a serious train accident, caused by human/equipment
failure, which may affect normal movement of train services with loss of life or property or both. This
is now extended to include natural and other man made disasters. Some of the disasters are listed
below with a few examples:-

Human/Equipment failure:

The following disasters/ accidents may be caused by human/equipment failure, which may affect
normal movement of train services with loss of life or property or both.
Collisions, with huge number of casualties.
Derailments at a bridge over a river and coaches falling down.
Derailment of a train carrying explosive or highly inflammable material.
Tunnel collapse on a train.
Fire or explosion on train.
Train marooned (flash floods) due to dam bursting,
etc. Train washed away in cyclone, etc.

Natural Calamities:

Natural calamities may also cause serious damage to rolling stock, fixed assets, buildings, etc.
leading to disruption of traffic with loss of life/property.
Landslide
Earth quakes
Floods
Storm/Cyclones/Tornadoes
Tsunami, etc.

Man made Disasters:

Sabotage or terrorism causing deliberate loss of life and/or damage to property.


Setting fire to train/railway installations and railway property.
Bomb blasts at railway stations/trains and other railway installations.
Placing of obstructions on track to cause wide spread disruption to
traffic Tampering with railway fittings to cause accidents.
Chemical (Terrorism) Disasters.
Biological and Nuclear Disasters.
Situation of riots where large scale loss of life and property is involved/envisaged.

17.2 Levels of Disaster causing interruption to train services:

Railway accidents can be categorized into different levels:


i) Accidents of a magnitude which can be managed by the concerned divisional authorities.
ii) Accidents of a magnitude which may require assistance from neighbouring divisions but can be
managed by the Zonal Railway and
iii) Disasters of a magnitude in terms of their severity or scale of casualties that require active
involvement of multiple agencies of the Central Govt. (Ministry of Railways and other
Ministries).

2
An Integrated Operation Centre (IOC) has been set up in the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to
handle disaster situation on a 24x7 basis. A Standard Operating Procedure has been prepared
for alerts of events of different types and a uniform system has been devised by categorising
each type of alert in stages- Yellow, Orange and Red. For Ministry of Railways these are:-

Category Description Stage

Minor 50 or more casualities (inclusive of death and injuries) Yellow

Medium 51-99 deaths Orange

Major 100 or more deaths or where additional assistance is sought Red


by the Ministry of Railway.

1.3 Declaration of a Railway accident/situation as a Disaster:

In case of a serious accident or any other extra-ordinary situation leading to disruption of traffic, the
Administration would take a conscious decision whether the situation is to be classified as a Disaster
or not. A disaster should normally be declared when an accident/situation is beyond the coping
capabilities of Railway, and would require large scale assistance from other agencies. Strike should
normally not be considered as a disaster, and should be dealt with as per C.Rly.’s Strike Scheme.

GM / AGM or CSO are the nominated officer to declare an accident or an extra-ordinary situation as a
Disaster in public interest. Such declaration will be issued to all concerned with the approval of
General Manager. If an accident or any other extra-ordinary situation is declared as a Disaster, all
instructions as contained in this Disaster Management Plan would automatically come into force, and
officers and staff of all departments would take action as laid down in this book and also in
accordance with the provisions of the Accident manual and other instructions issued from time to
time.

All officers, supervisors and staff concerned should be fully conversant with various duties listed
therein and carry them out without fail.

DISASTER PREPAREDNESS- AVAILABILITY OF RESOURCES

2.0 Introduction:

Railways are generally self-reliant in carrying out rescue and relief operations as a result of having a
well organized set up including ARMEs and ARTs. However, major accidents involving heavy
casualties in remote areas or in difficult terrain or under adverse weather conditions are possible to
be managed efficiently only by mobilizing non-railway resources.

Disaster Management mechanism in Railways can be maintained at a high level of preparedness and
efficiency by keeping all resources readily available and in good fettle. Resources imply both Railway
and non-railway men and material including medical, personnel, transport, volunteers, police and fire
services. Details of these resources, their location, contact numbers and other details have been
identified, compiled and placed in a ‘Data Bank’.

Resources available in case of a major accident may be grouped into 4 different units, depending on
the time frame within which these can be made available after an accident. These are as follows:

1. Resource Unit I Railway and non-railway resources available


on the train, and at nearby surroundings.
2. Resource Unit II Railway resources available at ARME/ART
depots and elsewhere on adjoining Zones and
Divisions.

3. Resource Unit III Railway resources available at ARME/ART


depots and elsewhere on adjoining Zones and
Divisions.

4. Resource Unit IV Non-railway resources available within or


outside the division.

SHARING OF RESOURCES WITH STATE GOVERNMENT AND OTHERS

5.0 Introduction:
With the provision of existing ARTs/ARMEs, the Railway administration may not be able to reach the
site of accident in reasonable time, say within 2 (Two) hours, in all cases. So, HLC has proposed to
enter into an MOU with the State Governments so that Railway and District administration can join
hands for mutual assistance in case of Railway/ Non-Railway disasters. Railways may provide rail
mobile Accident Rescue & Relief Van and State Government may provide necessary medical/
paramedical support, Ambulances, Fire Brigades, Road transport buses, Police force, Home Guards,
etc. Railway may also station Railway Rescue and Relief Commissioner at State Headquarter for
ensuring co-ordination between Railway and civil authorities.
To achieve the above-mentioned objective MOU has been signed between CMD C.RLY and
Secretary/Health, Maharashtra Govt. vide letter No.T.102.P.4.H.Dist.Mgmt. Recomd. No. 4 Dt
18.12.2003.

DISASTER RESPONSE –OVERVIEW


6.0 Golden Hour:

If a critical trauma patient is not given definite medical care within one hour from the time
of accident, chances of his ultimate recovery reduces drastically, even with the best of
Medical attention thereafter. This one-hour period is generally known as The Golden Hour.

During this Golden Hour period. every effort should be made to:
(i) Render definite medical care to the extent possible preferably by qualified medical
practitioners.
(ii) Stop bleeding and restore Blood Pressure.
(iii) Persons under shock should be relieved of shock immediately.
(iv) Transport casualties to the nearest hospital so as to reach within this Golden Hour period.
For being effective, any Disaster Management System should aim at recovering as many critical
patients as possible and rushing them to hospital within this period.
* First Aid details are given in Chapter – 21.

6.1 Disaster Syndrome:


A victim’s initial response following a Disaster is in three stages, viz. Shock stage, Suggestible stage
and Recovery stage. These initial reasons are called Disaster Syndrome.
(i) Shock stage: In which victims are stunned, dazed and apathetic.
(ii) Suggestible stage: In which victims tend to be passive but open to suggestions and willing to
take directions from rescue workers and others.
(iv) Recovery stage: In which individuals may be tense and apprehensive and may show
generalized anxiety.

6.2 Three Different phases of Disaster Response:


Disaster Response in case of a Railway accident consists of three phases. These three phases are
determined both by the time factor, as also by the extent of specialized assistance available. Firstly,
it begins with the spontaneous reaction of men available on the train at the time of the accident.
Thereafter, the second phase continues with contributions made in rescue and relief work by men
and material available locally in nearby areas of the accident site. The third and longest phase
consists of meticulously planned action by trained DM teams who arrive at the accident site to carry
out rescue and relief operations.
The first phase, which is of shortest duration, lasts for about half an hour. It is an amateurish, poorly
equipped effort, but is nevertheless the most important phase. In most cases, this is the only help
available for a major part of the ‘Golden Hour’.
The second phase, which is of 2-3 hrs. duration, is comparatively less amateurish and much better
equipped. Their contribution is vital since the ‘Golden Hour’ period comes to an end during the
working of this group. How many critically injured passengers can finally be saved depends solely on
the efficiency of this group.
The last and final phase of Disaster Response by Railway’s DM team continues for a few days. It
comes to an end not only with the restoration of traffic but also with the departure of most relatives
and next of kin from the accident site and disposal of all bodies. Few of the grievously injured that
continue to be hospitalised for comparatively longer spells are then the sole responsibility of
Railway’s medical department.
With the above scenario in mind, it is necessary to take firm and quick decisions to save lives and
property. To achieve these objectives, Railways have a well-defined action plan that is successfully
executed by the coordinated efforts of different disciplines, all of who function as a team. The three
groups which are active during the above mentioned three phases of Disaster Response, may be
classified as follows: -
i) Instant Action Team (IAT).
ii) First Responders (FR).
iii) Disaster Management Team (DMT).

7.5 Duties of members of Instant Action Team – Till arrival of Divisional Officers:-

i) If a person is bleeding and loosing blood, or if he is unconscious, then in that case you have to
act quickly. ‘Golden Hour’ should be kept in mind. You may have at the most only one hour’s
time on hand.
ii) In such cases, immediately administer First Aid to the injured passenger and try and stop
further loss of blood.
iii) Persons trained in first aid may do ‘Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation.” This may save several
lives.
iv) If the door is open and is accessible, then uninjured passengers should be helped to come out
from the door.
v) In AC coaches the windows panes should be broken open in order to let in fresh air for the
occupants, and thereafter to evacuate them.

x) Passengers who are bleeding from open cuts should be tied up with strips of cloth so as to
reduce if not stop the bleeding altogether.
xi) It is better not to take out the luggage from inside the coaches at the first instance, for two
reasons. Firstly, passengers both injured and uninjured should get preference in this
evacuation process. Secondly, it may be safer for the luggage to be left inside where there are
fewer chances of their being stolen or pilfered.
xii) After passengers have been evacuated from your coach, cross check with the reservation chart
and against the name of each passenger note down as to whether he / she is injured or not.
xiii) After all passengers have been evacuated; water and eatables can be taken out gradually.
xiv) Building up confidence of injured passengers by suitable advice is of great importance.
xv) After helping evacuate all passengers from your coach go over to the unreserved coaches and
provide similar help to those passengers also.
xvi) Railway officials from Divisional Head Quarter generally arrive at the site of the accident within
2 to 3 hours, depending on the distance of the accident site from the Divisional Head Quarter.
Wait for them to come and make further arrangements.
xvii) Grievously injured passengers who are bleeding or those who are unconscious require
immediate hospitalisation. In case some local people have arrived by that time, their help
should be taken in shifting the grievously injured to the nearest hospital.
xviii) In case your train has been involved in an accident, but neither has your coach derailed nor
any passengers of your coach injured, then you should go to the other coaches and carry out
the duties as listed above.

(ix) For stabling beyond 5 stations, up loop and down loop should be blocked, at alternate
stations.

10.2 Diversion, Regulation, Short termination, Cancellation and Rescheduling of Mail/


Express/ Passenger Trains:

(i) The moment information is received about the accident, all Mail/Express trains on run
towards the accident involved section should be stopped. They should not be advanced
beyond the last Jn. from where they can be diverted.
(ii) They should be regulated at convenient stations before a decision is taken regarding their
further movement. This decision should normally be taken within the next one hour.
(iii) Trains should preferably be regulated at stations where food can be arranged.
(iv) However, too many trains should not be simultaneously brought to a Jn. station for
regulation, since it may create law and order problems.
(v) It is better to keep them moving slowly so that passengers do not agitate. In such cases, a
caution order may be served to the driver to proceed at 30 KMPH.
(vi) Passenger trains can be run out to the next convenient location and thereafter terminated
so that their rakes are available for use.
(vii) Headquarters' Emergency Cell shall decide on the following in consultation with adjoining
Railway and Coaching Directorate of Railway Board:
- Diversion,
- Regulation,
- Short termination,
- Cancellation,
- Rescheduling.
(viii) The above decision regarding diversion etc. should be taken in about an hour’s time after
ARMEs, ARTs, GM special have been run out and there is a slight lull in the information
flow.
(ix) As far as possible, trains, which are already on run, should be diverted. They should not be
short terminated, since this will create problem of dispersal of passengers.
(x) Trains should be diverted from the last possible Jn. station onwards so that maximum
number of passengers can detrain at their proper destination stations.
(xi) Sr.DEE/TRO or Sr.DME/DME(OP) would be incharge of co-ordination with operating
department regarding requirement and availability of crews etc.
33
(xii) Sr.DEE/TRO or Sr.DME/DME(OP) will take into consideration changing traffic requirement
because of diversions etc. and accordingly plan crew deployment.
(xiii) Adjoining divisions should be informed about these diverted trains so that spare crews can
be sent to interchange points.
(xiv) For diverted trains, drivers and guards having necessary road learning should be arranged.
(xv) Drivers nominated for working these diverted trains should be empanelled for working
Mail/Express as per Railway Board’s instructions.
(xvi) Crews should also be planned for diesel engines sent to the accident site working ARMEs,
ARTs, other special trains and likely to be held up there for next 2-3 days.
(xvii) A total of about 5 diesel powers would be deployed in the accident-affected section on
different special trains at any point of time.
(xviii) 3 sets of diesel crews should be planned for each diesel loco deployed at the accident site.
(xix) If necessary, diesel crews should be arranged from adjoining divisions also.

10.3 Running of Special trains:

Following special trains will be required to be run in the given order of priority:
(i) ARME.
(ii) ARME from the other end.
(iii) 2 additional ARMEs from adjoining divisions, one from each end.
(iv) ART.
(v) ART from the other end.
(vi) 2 additional BD Specials one from each end.
(vii) 1st special train carrying GM and other officers from Headquarter and some left over
officers from Division (in case it passes through the Divisional headquarter).
(viii) Unaffected front portion of the accident involved train in case the same can be moved.
(ix) Unaffected rear portion of the accident involved train in case the same can be moved.
(x) In case the front and rear portions cannot be moved, then they should be left as they are.
(xi) 2 empty coaching rakes, one from either end for clearing unaffected passengers of the
accident involved train.
(xii) 2nd and 3rd special trains for accident site, one from each end, carrying logistic backup
support, material and additional manpower from junction stations. These should normally
be run out 2-3 hours after arrival of ARME carrying DRM and other Divisional officers at the
accident site.
(xiii) Before these 2nd and 3rd special trains run from each end, Railway staff at all stations en-
route should be informed regarding running of these trains so that supervisory staff of all
departments, from Jn. stations can go to the accident site on these trains.
(xiv) 2 light engines should be stationed, one at each station on either side of the accident
involved block section.
(xv) 2 Engineering specials, one from each end, carrying engineering material and Gangmen
from the section.
(xvi) Running of 2 passenger specials for carrying relatives to the site of accident. These trains
will be started from the originating and destination stations of the accident involved train
and will be given same stoppages as the accident involved train for picking up relatives
enroute. This is to be co-ordinated by Headquarters' Emergency Cell in consultation with
Railway Board.
(xvii) Arrangement for the visit of MR/MOSR, CRB and other Board Members to the accident site
should be made in coordination with the Safety Directorate of Rly. Board, and Secretary,
Railway Board.
(xviii) 2 empty coaching rakes, one from either end for being stabled at convenient locations
where watering and charging facilities are available. These stabled rakes will be used for
housing the staff working at accident site.

10.4 Sequence of movement of ARMEs and ARTs into the accident affected block section:

(i) The sequence of sending and taking out various trains into and out of the accident affected
block section should be planned carefully.
(ii) Except for 140T cranes and Engineering specials, all other trains should be sent into the
block section with engine leading so that they can reach faster.
(iii) If the unaffected front and rear portions of the accident involved train can be pulled out,
then these should be withdrawn before sending in ARMEs into the block section.
(iv) After the unaffected front and rear portions have been pulled out, both portions should be
augmented by being patched up with extra coaches at the first Jn. station enroute.

34
(v) In case the front and rear portions cannot be pulled out then they should be left as they
are.
(vi) After the 1st pair of ARMEs reaches adjacent stations from either side, they should be sent
into the block section, one from each end.
(vii) BD specials without cranes that have arrived should be pushed into the block section after
the ARME so that additional cutters, spreaders, hydraulic jacks etc. can be made use of.
(viii) After all equipments from BD specials have been unloaded at accident site and staff has
detrained, both BD specials should be withdrawn. These should then be kept 4 stations
beyond.
(ix) The 2nd pair of ARMEs that have been requisitioned should also be moved on top priority.
After BD specials have been withdrawn, these ARMEs should be sent into the block section
while the first ones are still there.
(x) In case 2nd pair of ARMEs arrive before BD special, then item No. (ix) should be carried out
before item No. (vii) and (viii).
(xi) Both ARTs with 140T cranes should be regulated at least 1 station before, so as not to
clutter up the adjacent station.
(xii) Empty coaching rakes that have been sent for clearing uninjured passengers should be
sent into the block section thereafter, while both ARMEs are still there.
(xiii) After transhipment of passengers, both empty coaching rakes should be pulled out and run
out as passenger special to the original destination of the accident involved train.
(xiv) After the work of ARMEs is over, all of them should be withdrawn and returned back.
(xv) The front and rear portion of the accident-involved train should now be withdrawn by
sending diesel light engines into the block section.
(xvi) Last of all both ARTs with 140T crane should be marshalled as per site requirement and
sent into the block section with crane leading, one from each end. The marshalling should
be done as per Sr.DME’s orders, in consultation with Crane incharge.
(xvii) Tower wagons should be sent in from each end following the ART.
(xviii) One Operating Officer at Site should be nominated for planning and executing movements
as per site requirements in consultation with Sr.DME, and with DRM’s approval.

DISASTER RESPONSE – ASSISTANCE FROM ADJOINING DIVISIONS/ZONES

11.0 Necessity of assistance from adjoining Divisions/Zones:

(i) No division can be equipped to handle a disaster of a large magnitude.


(ii) Assistance has to be sought from adjoining Divisions/Zones.
(iii) A division is normally expected to handle an accident of the magnitude involving up to 50 injuries
(Grievous). Threshold levels have been given in terms of injuries, because initially it is difficult to
estimate number of casualties.
(iv) Whenever number of injuries is estimated to go beyond 50, assistance should be sought for from
adjoining Divisions/Zones.
(v) This is to be co-ordinated by the Chief Emergency Officer in Head Quarter’s Emergency Cell.

11.1 Assessment of assistance from adjoining Divisions/Zones:

(i) DRM after reaching the accident site should make an immediate assessment of likely
injuries.
(ii) Quick assessment is an absolute must in order to ensure that assistance from adjoining
divisions can be rushed at the shortest possible time.
(iii) Assessment made by DRM should be based on number of coaches involved.
(iv) As a thumb rule, for each coach that has capsized, 30 injuries should be estimated.
(v) Total injuries estimated would be (no. of coaches) x 30. This is only a thumb rule. DRM
should make his own estimate based on site conditions and his experience. Estimate
should be as realistic as possible.
(vi) This should be conveyed to Sr.DOM in Divisional Emergency Cell and Chief Emergency
Officer in Head Quarter’s Emergency Cell.
(vii) Based on the above figures, decision should be taken and assistance rushed from adjoining
division and zones.

11.2 Scale of assistance from adjoining Divisions/Zones:

(i) As a thumb rule, assistance of 1 team should be sought from adjoining division for every
50 additional injuries, beyond 50 injuries.
(ii) Upto 50 injuries: 1 ARME is generally sufficient unless a very large proportion have
grevious hurt.
(iii) ART/ 140T crane: For a major disaster, 2 sets may be needed at site. Preferably these
should be planned from opposite ends. However, such decisions are to be taken based on
site conditions.
(iv) Complement of staff in each team sent by adjoining divisions/zones will be as per norms
given below:
- Officer in charge JA Grade
- Doctors 5
- Para-medical Staff 10
- Commercial Officers 2
- Commercial Supervisors 10
- Commercial Staff 20
- Personnel Supervisors 5
- Group ‘D’ Staff 40
- RPF 1 Platoon

37
11.3 Assistance from Defence & Para Militery Forces:

(i) Assistance should be sought from nearest army & Paramilitery establishments.
(ii) Railway staff, no matter how dedicated and loyal, are not experts in extricating dead
bodies, handling injured passengers, their evacuation, etc.
(iii) Army has the necessary expertise and are trained and equipped to handle such a war like
situation.
(iv) Therefore, divisional/zonal headquarters should get in touch with the nearest army
command and request for necessary assistance.
(v) Select telephone numbers of Army and Para-military establishements are given in Data
Bank.
(vi) Additional telephone numbers of Army are given in Data Bank.

11.4 Departmental assistance from adjoining Divisions/Zones:

(a) S&T Department:

(i) Satellite telephones from ARTs of 5 remaining divisions of C.Rly.


(ii) 5 existing Mobile Telephones each from 5 remaining divisions (25 Mobiles in all) should be
sent to site.

(b) Electrical Department:

(i) Generators from ARTs of adjoining division.


(ii) Lighting equipments from ARTs of adjoining division.
(iii) Portals and OHE masts.

(c) Civil Engineering:

(i) 500 additional workmen are generally required, who are to be moved from adjoining
divisions/zones.
(ii) Each such division sending assistance should move 250 men alongwith 5 JE/SSE(P-way)
and 5 PWS, with tools, etc.
(iii) One DEN and one AEN each should also move to the site of accident from each such
division for control of their staff.

(Chapter – 12)

SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN - I


12.0 Introduction:

There are two aspects of Disaster Management work at an accident site. Firstly, rescue, relief and
restoration operation, which is carried out by one set of functionaries. Second aspect pertains to
rehabilitation of accident involved passengers, taking care of dead bodies, dealing with their
relatives etc. for which a different set of functionaries are required. For managing these two
distinct aspects of DM work, that are required to be discharged by railways, two separate
establishments should be setup at an accident site.

12.1 Main Site Office (MSO):

(i) Main Site Office (MSO) should be set up at the accident site.
(ii) This will be some kind of a control office to be located near the centre of the accident site.
(iii) This is basically meant for catering to operational needs of railway in rescue, relief and
restoration work.
(iv) MSO is to be manned by staff of relevant departments such as:
- Medical,
- Commercial,
- Operating,
- Safety,
- Security,
- Public Relations,
- Mechanical,
- Electrical,
- S&T,
- Civil.
(v) MSO will be provided with all facilities similar to a control office.
(vi) Adequate lighting with generator backup should be provided in the MSO.
(vii) Adequate number of telephonic links to Divisional Emergency Cell and Headquarters’
Emergency Cell should be provided. Preferably, each department in the MSO should be
given an independent telephone.
(viii) Satellite telephone should be installed in the MSO.
(ix) MSO should be provided with FAX, loudspeakers, P.A. system with conference facility for
press briefing to be arranged by S&T Dept. S&T Dept. should also arrange photocopier and
PCs. in consultation with Dy.CSTE (Tele). Equipment available in ART/ARME may also be
used, if required.
(x) PC/Laptop should be connected to Internet (if feasible) for E-mailing of details update to all
concerned, including Divisional Emergency Cell, Headquarters’ Emergency Cell and Helpline
Enquiry Booths.
(xi) A big banner displaying ‘MAIN SITE OFFICE’ should be put up at a prominent place at the
entry to the shamiana.
(xii) Similarly, there should be sufficient number of signages indicating the way to MSO on
approach roads etc.
(xiii) MSO at the site will be manned by Sr. Supervisors on round the clock basis in 12 Hrs. shift
duty.
(xiv) Officers will not be permanently stationed in MSO. They will move about the entire
accident site supervising and monitoring working of their department at
different activity centres. However, they will keep coming to the MSO off and on and will
keep in touch with their departmental functionaries in MSO.
(xv) Various functionaries in the MSO will monitor and co-ordinate the working of their
departments, and assistance required by them, if any.
(xvi) Each functionary at the MSO will maintain a logbook. Flow of information both incoming
and outgoing would be recorded along with the time and names of officers/staff who were
given the message.
(xvii) MSO will basically supervise the working of 2 Site Offices (SOs) and co-ordinate with
Divisional and Headquarters’ Emergency Cell.
(xviii) Functionaries of different departments in SOs should provide updated information
regarding progress of work to their counterparts in MSO.
(xix) This updated information should be provided once every hour as per the following timings:

39
The information to be updated every ½ hour initially, and then every 1 hour.

12.2 Site Office (SO):

(i) Depending on the spread of the accident site, Site Offices (SO) on the same pattern as the
MSO, should be setup.
(ii) If the site is spread out over >300 metres 1SOs and if spread out over > 400 meters then
2SOs should be setup.
(iii) Representatives of same departments as in MSO should be present in SOs also. However,
they should be either one or at most 2 men per department.
(vi) SOs will serve as co-ordination centres for various teams that are working spread out over
different geographical locations.
(vi Each SO will oversee the working of DM teams at one end of the accident site.
(vi) Jurisdiction of each SO will extend to all men and materials belonging to 2 ARMEs, BD
special and 1 ART at that end of the accident site.
(vii) One SAG officer of Mechanical department will be overall incharge of each SO.
(viii) SOs should be provided with loudspeakers for making announcements.
(ix) SOs should be provided with direct telephone links to MSO.
(x) However, SOs should not be provided with telephone links to either Divisional Emergency
Cell or Headquarters’ Emergency Cell. This will ensure that there is minimum telephonic
disturbance from outside to teams, which are actually working at the accident site. It will
also ensure that outflow of information from accident site goes out from MSO only.
(xi) Members of different teams of each department working at the accident site in rescue,
relief and restoration work should provide updated information regarding progress of work
to their respective functionaries at the MSO.
(xii) This updated information should be provided once every hour as detailed at 12.1(xix)
above.

12.3 Passenger Assistance Centre (PAC):

1. Need for setting up of Passenger Assistance Centre:


(i) Relatives of passengers who arrive at an accident site are already traumatized by the
tragedy.
(ii) They arrive at an unknown location with no place to stay, no friend or acquaintances and
not knowing whom to turn upto.
(iii) The problem is made even more challenging since many relatives and next of kin come
from far-flung areas of some other state, with language barriers.
(iv) Being semi-literate and from different parts of the country some of them are not even
familiar with the local language. For them, even communicating becomes a problem.
(v) In addition to above, complex legal formalities & multiplicity of paper work is required to
be completed before dead bodies are handed over to the next of kin of the dead.
(vi) For taking care of relatives of passengers, providing them with succour in their hour of
agony and for guiding them sympathetically, some kind of an assistance centre is required.

2. Formalities required to be completed by relatives of passengers:


(a) Sequence of formalities that are required to be completed by relatives of injured
passengers includes:
(i) Locating the name of the passenger on reservation charts, in case passenger was travelling
in reserved accommodation.
(ii) Going through the list of injured and dead passengers to find out whether the name
appears.
(iii) In case the name is not available in the list, then taking a round of different hospitals to
find out whether their relative has been admitted in one of them in an unconscious state.
(iv) Hospitals are generally at separate locations, sometimes even in different towns; and
commuting becomes a problem.
(v) In case the passenger can be located in one of the hospitals, they have to find out the
severity of injuries, likely period of hospitalisation, etc.
(vi) Collect the ex - gratia paid by Railways.
(vii) Try and locate missing luggage and belongings of the injured passengers. For this they
have to take a round of the building where all unclaimed luggage have been kept.
(viii) Next they have to arrange for a place for them to stay.
40
(ix) Arrange for medicines/diet etc. and payment of hospital bills, if required.
(x) Thereafter, they have to keep in touch with the hospital and get their relative released.
(b) Additional formalities that are required to be completed by next of kin of dead
passengers include:
(i) In case the passenger could not be located in any of the hospitals, then they have to go to
the building where unidentified dead bodies have been kept.
(ii) Take a round of various rooms where bodies have been kept, examine each body and try
and locate their near and dear one.
(iii) Identify the dead body, if the same has been extracted by then.
(iv) Otherwise wait for all bodies to be extracted and try and identify their relative.
(v) In case they fail to identify the same then they have to go through photographs of
unidentified bodies taken at site.
(vi) After the body is finally identified, they have to produce proof of relationship for railways to
entertain their claim.
(vii) Obtain medical death certificate from the railway doctor.
(viii) Obtain post mortem report, from the Govt. Doctor who has performed post mortem on the
body.
(ix) Obtain official death certificate from the local municipality.
(x) Accept of ex-gratia payment from railways.
(xi) Collect forms for lodging claim for compensation in RCTs.
(xii) Take over custody of dead body from the local police.
(xiii) Perform last rites at the same place or take back the body to their native place, depending
on circumstances.
(xiv) Make arrangements for their return journey back to their native place.

3. Problems encountered by relatives:


(i) Each of these formalities are under the jurisdiction of a different agency, either railway or
police or civil administration or local administration.
(ii) In such a situation the level of co-ordination between these various agencies leaves much
to be desired.
(iii) Sometimes it even takes up to 48 hours before these entire documentary formalities can
be completed.
(iv) In most cases relatives have to run from pillar to post for completing all these formalities
and the bitter experience leaves them permanently antagonised towards Railways.
(v) For this purpose a single window clearance system should be available for relatives and
next of kin.

4. Passenger Assistance Center (PAC): Details


(i) The MSO should have a Passenger Assistance Centre (PAC) located towards the rear side,
away from the track, for rendering help to passengers and their relatives. PAC will be
headed by a Commercial Officer.
(ii) This is basically meant for catering to requirements of passengers and their relatives/next
of kin, and for providing a single window clearance for all types of formalities.
(iii) Passenger Assistance Centre (PAC) should be separate from the MSO so that it does not
interfere with normal rescue and relief work.
(iv) PAC will be manned by staff of relevant departments such as:
- Operating,
- Medical,
- Commercial,
- Security,
- Personnel.
(v) There should be only one such PAC, and all Railway resources should be pooled into it.
(vi) SOs should not have any small PAC located in the rear. It is likely to create logistic
problems.
(vii) A big banner displaying ‘PASSENGER ASSISTANCE CENTRE’ should be put up at a
prominent place at the entry to the shamiana.
(viii) Similarly, there should be sufficient number of signages indicating the way to PAC on
approach roads etc.
(ix) Railway staff fluent in the language of relatives should be posted for doing work of
interpreters.
(x) Post mortem formalities should be waived off so that one reduces number of formalities.

41
(xi) Different counters should be provided in sequence for each of these formalities, so that the
entire exercise can be completed in about an hour.
(xii) Functionary concerned from the local Municipality who issues Official Death Certificate
should be made to come and sit in the PAC so that these certificates can be issued
immediately without any delay.
(xiii) PAC should have different counters for various purposes in following sequence:
(a) Reservation Chart for locating the name.
(b) List of dead and injured along with name of hospital. The name of passenger
involved should be checked up from the list of dead or injured if available, and
their current status informed.
(c) Counter for providing commercial supervisor or WLI as escort along with a vehicle,
for accompanying the relative and going to hospital or mortuary.
(d) Railway doctor for issue of Medical Death Certificate.
(e) Govt. Doctor for issue of Post Mortem Certificate, in case the same is necessary.
(f) Municipality official for issue of Official Death Certificate.
(g) Local police for issue of authority for handing over of dead body.
(h) Claims counter – payment of ex-gratia and issue of Claims Compensation form.
(i) Counter for helping performance of last rites in case relatives decide to cremate
the body there itself.
(j) Pass counter for issue of return journey pass.
(k) Return journey facilitation counter for making arrangements for return journey
reservation, etc.
(xiv) PAC will provide updated information to MSO, initially once every half an hour and
later once every hour.
12.4 First Aid Posts:
(i) Medical Posts should be provided in both MSO and PAC.
(ii) Medical Post in MSO will provide first aid to injured passengers after extrication, assess
their injuries and make arrangements for sending them to nearby hospitals.
(iii) Medical Post in PAC will keep all records of injured and dead passengers, names of
hospitals where they have been admitted etc.
(iv) First Aid posts should be provided in SOs.
(v) These First Aid Posts are meant for treating passengers and classifying their injuries before
they are sent for admission to various hospitals.
12.5 Setting up of MSO, SO and PAC:
(i) One SSE/Works shall be exclusively responsible for setting up of these facilities. He shall
undertake the following:
- Move along with sufficient staff for setting up of these facilities.
- Immediately start setting up of the tentage accommodation after taking out tents and
shamianas provided in ARTs.
- In addition, he should also requisition agencies, which provide tentage accommodation
on contract. Details of such agencies have been given in Divisional Disaster
Management Plan.
(ii) Bridge Line staff will assist in setting up tentage and above-mentioned facilities.
Dy.CE/Bridge will also move to the site and in case bridge is not involved, he will take full
charge of tentage arrangements.
(iii) Bridge Unit will take with them sufficient Manila ropes, wire ropes, survey instruments,
binoculars, helmets, life jackets, ladders and other equipment. Nylon ropes should be
sufficient in length to ensure barricading at sites and camping areas.
(iv) Sufficient facilities for erecting temporary stage/scaffolding etc. should also be organised, if
required at site.
(v) Few temporary toilets should be provided at one location in addition to number of urinals
at 3 or 4 places.

taxis for their movement by withdrawing cash from station earnings.

10. Post admittance hospital care:

i) One railway doctor, one commercial supervisor and one welfare inspector should
be deputed round the clock at each hospital.
ii) Normally one doctor should look after one hospital, along with a commercial
supervisor and WLI.
iii) If large no. of hospitals are involved 2 or 3 hospitals may be given to one doctor.
In that case, the doctor, in consultation with CMS/MS should station himself at the

Decide whether the patient needs to be shifted to other hospital with better
facilities and arrange to shift the patient, if required.
v) In case any injured passenger succumbs to his injuries in the hospital, then the
doctor in charge of that hospital should update this fact to the medical counter at
PAC.

11. Dealing with dead bodies:

i) Problem faced by rescue teams is regarding dealing of dead bodies.


ii) In case of a major disaster, the usual complement of medical staff in any ARME is
grossly inadequate for undertaking work of this magnitude.
iii) Adequate number of Safaiwalas and other health workers who have come to the
accident site should be mobilized for this purpose.
iv) Often rescue and relief operations continue for more than 48 hours.
v) Dismembered bodies begin emitting foul odour after two days. Carrying out this
task under such circumstances becomes a real problem.
vi) Target should be to extricate all dead bodies within 24 hrs.
vii) Dead bodies should be dealt with coach wise; otherwise bodies taken out from
different coaches get mixed up.
viii) Bodies taken out from coaches should be stacked at quite some distance from the
track in front of respective coaches, in separate lots, coach wise. While this may
slow down the work initially, in the long run it is more systematic since bodies
don’t get mixed up.
ix) Shift dead bodies from coaches to a nominated place at the accident site with the
help of paramedical staff, SJAB, Scouts, Civil Defence personnel, other railway staff
and non-railway volunteers available at site.
x) Put dead bodies in body bags.

xi) Put label written by Marker pen on each dead body in the pocket provided in body
bag.
- Date _____________
- Dead body Serial No.________
- Name ____________________
- Age _________Sex__________
- Coach No._________________
xii) In case of unidentified dead bodies, against the item ‘name’ it should be written as
unidentified-1/unidentified-2 etc. Approximate age should be estimated from the
appearance, such as between 35-45 years.
xiii) 5 Photographs preferably by digital camera should be taken of each dead body.
Two should be close up of face from in front and sideways, third should be of full
length of the body.
xiv) If possible each body should also be video photographed.
xv) After photographs have been taken, each body should be placed inside a plastic
bag with zip having proper labelling system where same information is also to be
provided.
xvi) After this, bodies will be handed over to GRP or Local Police for safe custody.
xvii) Take necessary steps to handle unhygienic condition that may arise due to
decomposed/mutilated bodies.

12. Preservation of dead bodies:

i) Numbering and photography of bodies should be done even when relatives are on
hand to claim the body.
ii) Arrangements have to be made for a more permanent location for them till such
time the next of kin arrive to claim these bodies.
iii) In all such accidents, passengers are invariably separated from their belongings.
As such in many cases there are no tickets or other identification papers on their
persons.
iv) This problem is further compounded in unreserved coaches where no reservation
charts are available.
v) Identification problems come up in case of mutilated bodies also. In such cases,
photographs are better means of identification.
vi) Arrange for hiring of a couple of big halls, for keeping bodies.
vii) Rooms should preferably be at a single location so that relatives do not have to go
around from mortuary to mortuary.
viii) A large building having number of rooms would be ideal for storing them. Best
option would be to take over a school building temporarily.
ix) Arrange to move dead bodies to nominate buildings being used as temporary
mortuaries. Bodies likely to be held for more number of days should be embalmed.
x) Bodies should be neatly lined up with their numbers prominently displayed, and
kept in different rooms, coach-wise.
xi) Notice Board outside the building should display the room nos., where bodies
extracted from a particular coach have been kept.
xii) These details should also be posted on a notice board outside each room.
xiii) This will prevent unnecessary handling of bodies, which in any case would be in an
advanced state of decomposition.
xiv) For dead bodies whose relatives are not readily available and delay is expected,
arrange for their preservation by dry ice etc.
xv) Procure following items from local market for dealing with dead bodies:
- Shrouds,
- Polythene bags,
- Coffins,
- Dry ice.
xvi) 4 Commercial supervisors should be put on round the clock duty in the building
housing the temporary mortuary for guiding relatives as and when they come.
xvii) Face masks and gloves should be arranged for the staff handling dead bodies.

FIRE AND OTHER ACCIDENTS

17.0 Introduction:

Fire on a running train is more catastrophic than on a stationary one, since fanning by winds helps
spread the fire to other coaches. Moreover, passengers sometimes jump out of a running train on
fire resulting in increased casualties.

In case of fire in running train, every railway staff available on the train or at the site shall
immediately try and stop the train and plunge into action to save lives and property.

17.1 Main causes of fire in trains:

(i) Carrying stoves, sigris, gas cylinders, kerosene oil, petrol, fireworks etc. in passenger
compartments.

(iii) Lighted match sticks, cigarette ends carelessly thrown.
(iv) Short circuit in electrical wirings.
(v) Using naked light during “token delivery” to the driver, shunting of inflammable loads,
sealing of inflammable wagons.
(vi) Use of open fire, smoking near gas/petrol tank.

All railway staff and passengers should take all possible precautions to avoid any of the above
mistakes so that possibility of fire breaking out can be minimized. In general fire originates in a
small level. When burning materials with adequate supply of air surround it, fire spreads.

Ref : Railway Board’s Letter No.2003/Safety (DM)/6/3 dated 13.06.08.


As per Disaster Management Act 2005, various Ministries and departments under Government of India,
should join hands for mutual assistance in case of a disaster. Assistance from local Government and non-
government agencies is invariably required by the Railway Administration for prompt relief and rescue
operation in case of disasters affecting railways. Assistance of NDRF could be of great help to the Railways
in major railway disasters.
For requisitioning NDRF in times of Disaster, the Zonal Railways/Divisions have to approach Railway Board
who will request NDMA to direct the NDRF Battalions to proceed to site. (Ref Rly Bd Letter No 2003/Safety
(DM)/6/3 Dt 09/11/09.)
