The engine, which was running without any coaches, was travelling towards Gaya on a loop line when it lost control and went off the tracks.
A crowd gathered after the derailment trying to decipher the sight of the engine in the middle of the field. Photos of the engine even sparked memes online - claiming trains are now being used to plough the fields.
A railway relief team later arrived at the scene and efforts were still on to bring it back on the tracks. NDTV tried to contact the Wazirganj station manager, but there was no response.
