Large contingent on site
Train on fire: fire inferno at Berlin train station
There was a serious fire at Ahrensfelde station (Berlin-Marzahn) on Saturday evening. A diesel railcar caught fire at around 9.50 pm, prompting the fire department to arrive with a large contingent. The federal police were also deployed. The entire length of the train was on fire and rail services were suspended.
According to the Berlin police, there was no danger to people. When the fire department arrived, the three carriages were already fully engulfed in flames; there were no passengers on board.
No injuries, still embers
According to Bild, the flames were almost completely extinguished by 11.30 p.m. and the emergency services were still dealing with the remaining embers.
The train driver and a train attendant were treated by paramedics as a precaution, but remained uninjured.
Witnesses reported heavy smoke before the fire broke out. The train involved did not belong to Deutsche Bahn, but to the private Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn. Ahrensfelde station remains closed for the time being.
