Fourteen wagons of a freight train detailed on the Transbaikal railway, Russian Railways said on January 8. Tracks were damaged and passenger traffic along the Moscow-to-Vladivostok route was affected, but no injuries were reported and there was no environmental threat, Russian Railways said on Telegram. The derailment occurred on a section of track between Aleur and Bushuley in southeastern Russia. “We are doing everything possible to eliminate the consequences of the derailment and resume traffic in this area,” the railway said. The cause of the derailment is unknown. The railway initially said 27 freight wagons derailed. A Telegram channel linked to the Russian government said earlier that an explosion at the San-Donato railway station near the Urals city of Nizhny Tagil disrupted train traffic. Baza and another Telegram channel, Kanal 112, reported that an explosive device detonated on the tracks in the railway station, adding that a second explosive device that failed to detonate was discovered nearby.
