The Nilgiris Mountain Rail (NMR) service between Mettupalayam and Udhagamandalam has been suspended till October 24 due to landslips following incessant rains in Nilgiris district for the last few days, official sources said.
The train, which left Mettupalayam on Saturday morning had to return as there were landslips near Kallar and again a few km from there.
Due to continuous landslips and rains, the Railways decided to suspend the service of this train for three days, the sources said.
Restoration of the service would depend on the situation on the track, they added.
