The goods train departed Rangapani at 8:42 am and collided with the Kanchanjunga Express at 8:55 am. Initially, the Railway Board blamed the goods train driver, but the Indian Railway Loco Runningmen Organisation (IRLRO) disputed this claim, stating that the driver was authorized to pass red signals.

Ranipatra ke station master ne ek written authority (TA 912) issue ki thi jisse driver ko red signals ke bawajood aage badhne ki permission thi. Automatic signaling system Monday subah 5:50 se hi kharab tha aur station master ke TA 912 issue karne ke decision ki jaanch ki ja rahi hai. Kanchanjunga Express Rangapani station se subah 8:27 pe chali thi aur Ranipatra aur Chattar Hat Junction ke beech unknown reasons ki wajah se ruk gayi. Goods train subah 8:42 pe Rangapani se chali thi aur 8:55 pe Kanchanjunga Express se takkar ho gayi. Pehle Railway Board ne goods train ke driver ko blame kiya tha, lekin Indian Railway Loco Runningmen Organisation (IRLRO) ne is claim ko reject kiya aur kaha ki driver ko red signals pass karne ki permission thi. IRLRO ne yeh bhi kaha ki blame railway administration pe hai, driver pe nahi.
