New Delhi (Vishvas News). A video circulating widely on social media appears to show a train derailing on a bridge and three coaches plunging into a river. Users sharing the clip claim the incident occurred in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, where the train is said to have fallen into the Ramganga River.
Vishvas News investigated the claim and found it to be false. The video is not real; it was created using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and is being falsely shared as footage of an actual accident.
What is in the viral post?
Instagram user firstpostnow_official posted the video (archived link) on November 17, 2025, with the caption, “Heartbreaking accident in a rally. The moving train lost its balance and, within seconds, left the tracks, plunging into the Ramganga River. It’s a sight to behold.”
Investigation
To investigate the viral video, we searched for keywords related to the Bareilly train accident and found no news reports of the accident.
