JAKARTA - PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) confirmed the accident between the Turangga train, the Surabaya Gubeng-Bandung and Commuterline Bandung Raya, which occurred this morning, Friday, January 5, at around 06.03 WIB.
The accident occurred at km 181 + 700 plots of the road between Haurpugur Station - Cicalengka Station.
"The rail line between Haurpugur-Cicalengka is temporarily impassable due to the accident. Currently, KAI is trying to evacuate passengers on the two trains (KA) that experienced the accident," said EVP of Corporate Secretary of KAI Raden Agus Dwinanto Budiadji.
