A long-haul truck has collided with a passenger train in Ramenskoye District, Moscow Region, late on Tuesday night. There was no loss of life, according to Itar-Tass. Vladimir Myagkov, spokesman of the Moscow Railway, said that the incident occurred at about 22:00 Moscow time on the railway leg between Faustovo and Bronnitsy. "Over there, the long-haul truck rammed into Passenger Train 3, Kislovodsk-Moscow, at a no-gates railway crossing. As a result, one passenger of the train was injured while the train's electric locomotive was damaged and put out of order. The damaged locomotive has been towed to Faustovo Station by now and a new one was attached to the train," Myagkov pointed out, emphasizing that "the train is proceeding on its way to Moscow's Kazansky railway terminal". According to preliminary version, the collision occurred because the driver of the truck failed to cope with controls. It took about one hour to restore railway traffic there.
