A freight train hit a person near Pardubice, prompting authorities to close the corridor line between Kostěnice and Pardubice on Friday morning. The collision happened around 06:00. Správa železnic said the track section between Kostěnice and Pardubice hl. n. was halted after the train struck a person. According to České dráhy (ČD), the disruption affected the corridor route between Kolín and Česká Třebová. České dráhy introduced replacement buses, but the bus connections did not match train schedules, meaning passengers would need to use additional onward transport. Police also opened a case after the incident. The source says that because of the crash, police accused two train drivers. The same report states the accused men face up to eight years. The operator said some trains ran on detours via Havlíčkův Brod, while other services were replaced by shuttle buses. The disruption lasted around two hours, though the exact time was described as approximate. The latest status in the source is that police have accused two drivers and the case remains under investigation.
