North Rhine-Westphalia: fire in the sawmill in Finnentrop: railway traffic affected

Finnentrop (dpa / lnw) - A fire broke out in a sawmill in Finnentrop (district of Olpe) on Sunday morning. The sawmill in the Rönkhausen district caught fire for reasons that are still unclear, said a police spokesman. According to initial estimates, the damage to property is in the mid-six-digit range. There are no injuries. The extinguishing work should therefore probably continue for several hours.

The fire brigade operation also affected the regional traffic of Deutsche Bahn. The train announced on Twitter that there were failures on the regional lines RB91 and RE16. Trains from Siegen stopped in Finnentrop, trains from Hagen in Plettenberg. Replacement traffic with large-capacity taxis was set up between Finnentrop and Plettenberg.
