A train has collided with a truck that should have been standing on the railway line.

The truck had a trailer with a boat that has been totally damaged in the encounter with the train, says Varden's man on the spot.

According to the police, the hanger was struck by the train.

- What we know for now is that a wagon train with a boat must have crossed the train crossing, and has got stuck. Then the booms have gone down, the train has come and run into the trolley, says Police Inspector Øyvind Larsen to Varden.

The truck driver is basically uninjured, as are the four passengers and the three employees on board the train. But one of the employees is nevertheless sent to the Hospital in Skien for a check.

The railway crossing is closed at Borgestad.
