According to Ria Feik Achbergerová, a spokeswoman for the Slovak State Railways, eleven wagons of a freight train were derailed, damaging the infrastructure. Due to the incident, traffic was suspended on the section between Sereď and Siladice. The derailed train caused damage of approximately 1,200 meters of track.
According to the spokesperson, all traffic is suspended on the section between Sered and Leopoldov. The line belongs to both RFC AMBER and RFC Baltic-Adriatic.
