Losing your jewelry is more likely in an electric train between Tambaram and Beach stations during peak hours, says a new survey. The other fact that came to light was that travelers are more likely to have their baggage stolen in Mail and Express trains between Chennai Central and Katpadi during the night.

The analysis has also shown that a considerable number of crimes reported in the division pertained to theft of gold ornaments. Of the 147 crime incidents in Chennai division during 2012, 60 were theft of gold jewels, said Mr. S.R. Gandhi, Senior Divisional Security Commissioner, Chennai Division, Southern Railways.
