Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The Floriani firefighters were alerted shortly after 2 pm. The reason was an embankment fire that had broken out near the tracks of the Achenseebahn between the Jenbach districts of Burgeck and Fischl.
"Several workers from Achenseebahn Infrastruktur- und Betriebs-GmbH were traveling with the coal-powered locomotive at the time and were busy with maintenance work," said the investigators.
Fire spread quickly
Due to the current dry conditions and the wind, the fire spread quickly. "The train driver's attempt to bring the fire under control with a fire-fighting backpack failed." The Jenbach and Wiesing volunteer fire departments and a company fire department had to be called out to fight the fire.
The train driver had to be taken to Schwaz district hospital due to suspected smoke inhalation. The fire was declared out at around 3 pm. Around 4500 square meters were affected by the fire.
