An elderly woman showed exemplary presence of mind and averted a possible train accident by waving red cloth to the loco pilot to prevent the train from approaching a tree that fell on the railway track. 

Chandravati (70), a resident of Kudupu Ayara Mane,  saved the lives of scores of passengers on the train from a possible train accident. 

The incident occurred at Mandara near Pachanady between Padil-Jokatte stretch. A tree fell on the railway tracks. Matsyagandha Express train from Mangaluru to Mumbai was about to pass through the same spot within a short time. Sensing danger, Chandravati immediately took a piece of red cloth and waved at the loco pilot, who slowed down the train and stopped it ahead of the fallen tree. 

Later, the tree was cleared from the tracks by locals and railway department personnel.
