Fire traps passengers on a train over the river

The fire broke out on a train that was traveling over a bridge outside the American city of Boston, and as a result, panic spread in the hearts of travelers.

Some escaped the flames by jumping out of windows, onto the floor of the bridge, which are other railroad plans, while one of these travelers jumped into the river.

The train caught fire Thursday morning, while the train was heading from Boston to Somerville, Massachusetts.

The train stopped moving completely when it was over the bridge built on the Mystic River, and the sound of the explosion reverberated in the area so that the city’s motorists heard it.

With the help of the local Massachusetts Transportation Authority, about 200 passengers who were on the train were moved to a safe place, but some travelers got off the train by jumping on themselves, according to the Boston Globe.

Somerville fire chief, Charles Breen, said that a department boat was accidentally located near the river, and its officers noticed that a woman was swimming after she jumped from the train.

The woman refused to board the rescue boat, and instead wore a life jacket thrown by the team members and pulled ashore.

The authorities managed to put out the fire, and no injuries were reported, and the train was transferred to a nearby station to complete the investigation.
