- The locomotive and the first wagons are still on the track, but then there are a large number of derailed wagons, says Emilia Salmela, communicator at LKAB, who later announces that it is about 30 wagons.
Between eight and ten trains loaded with ore run daily from Kiruna to Narvik.
Each train consists of 68 wagons, where each wagon weighs 20 tons and is loaded with approximately 100 tons.
Until the derailment is fixed, neither LKAB's trains nor other trains can operate on the rails.
LKAB has sent a locomotive from Kiruna to help pull wagons away.
On Monday morning, the accident commission will be on site.
