In our case, the lights inside the tunnel were switched on and then backup was sent to the nearby station .. And air blowers inside the tunnel were switched on. Thank god there was battery in each comp for the 2 hrs and we all got out as we were feeling much hot inside the comp... outside it was cool... except the buzz sound from the engine and the air Blowers
