A contact wire fell on Monday morning and caused a grass fire between Karlshamn and Karlskrona.

Around 90 train passengers were left stranded outside Ronneby and were evacuated, reports P4 Blekinge.

All train traffic between Karlshamn and Karlskrona has been cancelled until 8 pm on Monday evening.

Two trains were evacuated. The fire has been extinguished, but the section where this wire fell was longer than expected and they didn't have the right spare parts, says Katarina Wolffram, press communicator at the Swedish Transport Administration, to TT.
