Several llamas break out of a circus and run onto the tracks near Meidling station. Austrian Federal Railways: "It is a rarity that train traffic has to be stopped because there are animals on the tracks" None of the llamas were harmed.
In May, a brown bear was hit by a train in the province of Salzburg and killed. The exact number of escaped animals is unclear, according to Austrian media reports. The section between the main station and Meidled was closed for 20 minutes.
