The incident, which caused a suspension of rail traffic on line number 9 between Modlin and Legionowo, affected nearly 400 people.<\/p>\n<p>Bartosz Pietrzykowski from the PKP Polish Railway Lines press team reported that the disruption affected both a regional train and a long-distance service. The regional train, traveling from Modlin to Warsaw, stopped near the Modlin Shipyard, while the train from Olsztyn to Krakow came to a halt before reaching Modlin station.<\/p>\n<h4>Emergency Services Response<\/h4>\n<p>Around 12:15 PM, firefighters began the evacuation of the Modlin-Warsaw train. Passengers were escorted to the water shipyard in the Modlin port, where they could seek shade. Emergency services focused on the safe extraction of passengers and providing water due to the high temperatures; preparations were also made to set up water curtains.<\/p>\n<h4>Logistical Challenges<\/h4>\n<p>PKP Intercity activated a crisis team for the long-distance train, planning to transport passengers by bus to the Modlin station. The operation was complicated by the train&#8217;s location outside the station and the lack of electricity in the traction network, which caused the air conditioning to fail.<\/p>\n<p>The failure caused significant disruptions on the route serving connections between Warsaw, Modlin, Legionowo, and other destinations.
