[@TsGeeks]

Attention, there is a part written in Spanish at minute 10:09, we apologize, the English translation is: Subsequently, the southern line that turned out to be damaged was improved and updated to be able to circulate at speeds of 100 km/h (62 mph). SORRY!

Thanks for making this video.On that day I missed this on Dehiwala Railway station. There are few wrong information on this video.Actual thing is traind driver didn't got any information about increasing sea water level.Train stopped becouse railway signal light dosent work becouse before few minutes tsunami hits hikkaduwa railway station.Please ignore grammatically error in my comment 😂

Still remember the day. Even as far away as in the state of Bengal in India, we felt the effect. Though we did not experience the tremors, the water in the ponds in our lane suddenly started swirling around. It was only a few hours later did we first get the first news of the true extent of the disaster.

I designed the signalling system without the automatic block signals between the stations. Sub ordinates and Trade unions critisied my design , push me out the chair and introduced automatic block signals between the stations. As the sea water hits the track block signal failed . As a safety rule Tain shall not pass the signal without the train was piloted by guard to the satatiion. Near by villagers also felt that the Train was the heighest place for their safety. Unfortunately a second big wave came and toppled the train and pushed the train 500 m away. When all this happened then GMR Priyal de Silva was in the control.office
