Cyclone Montha has wreaked havoc on the South Central Railway network, resulting in the cancellation of 122 trains and affecting over 160 services overall. The storm, which intensified into a severe cyclonic storm over the Bay of Bengal, made landfall along the Andhra Pradesh coast, prompting significant disruptions, especially between Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada. Long-distance trains connecting southern cities like Bengaluru and Chennai to eastern and northeastern destinations were also impacted. Railway officials have taken precautionary measures to ensure passenger safety, including the cancellation and rescheduling of services. The restoration of normal operations will depend on weather conditions and thorough inspections of the tracks post-cyclone. The India Meteorological Department has warned that the landfall process of Cyclone Montha will continue for several hours, with wind speeds reaching up to 110 kmph.
