Train traffic halted between Stockholm and Gothenburg after suspected accident near Södertälje

After a little more than an hour, traffic was able to resume.

The rescue service was there and found nothing, so they believe it was an animal. Traffic is back on track, says SJ's press officer Anders Edgren.

The stoppage affected the Stockholm-Gothenburg and Stockholm-Örebro routes via Eskilstuna, according to Sveriges Radio's traffic editorial team. Delays may persist, according to the Swedish Transport Administration.
