Hyderabad: The South Central Railways (SCR) have been forced to cancel, partially cancel and divert the running of several express and mail trains for the third day in succession consequent to the heavy rains in and around Chennai.

Late on Monday evening and early on Tuesday, the SCR announced the cancellation of 30 trains, while partially cancelling nine more, apart from diverting the run of nine trains on Tuesday.
