“Rail traffic on the Itykit-Okushikan section of the Eastern Railway has been fully restored. At 18:20 Moscow time, a freight train passed through the Severomuysky tunnel,” the company said in a statement on its Telegram channel .
Recall that on Thursday one of the carriages of a freight train caught fire in the Severomuysky tunnel on the Buryatia section of the BAM. There were no victims. The East Siberian Transport Prosecutor’s Office has launched an investigation into the wagon fire.
At the same time, Russian Railways noted that train traffic was not interrupted, but was organized along a ring section with a slight increase in travel time. “All passenger trains are running as planned,” the company noted.
