Incidents
The train derailed in 1990 at Khandala Ghat, but there were no casualties.
On 30 November 2006, a mob of around 6000 protestors set fire to some coaches of the train near Ulhasnagar after forcing the passengers to get down. The arsonists were protesting against the vandalism of a statue of B. R. Ambedkar in far away Kanpur though the incident had nothing to do with the Deccan Queen or even Mumbai or Pune.
