Train traffic resumed between Kortrijk and Menin shortly following 8:30 p.m., Infrabel announced this Sunday evening. It had been interrupted a few hours earlier following an incident at a level crossing near Ménin.

A car had come to rest on the tracks as a train approached. Fortunately, firefighters who were in the area for a fire managed to move the vehicle a few centimeters.
A few centimeters which made the difference since the train, which arrived at reduced speed thanks to the vigilance of the driver, only touched the car. The train passengers still had to evacuate the train.

There was, meanwhile, no one in the vehicle. No injuries and limited material damage, but above all a big scare: “It might have ended very badly”, explained the Infrabel spokesperson to our colleagues from Laatste Nieuws.
