Five workers were injured when
a fire broke out in a tunnel on the Naples-Salerno railway line
late on Thursday, rail company Ferrovie dello Stato said on
Friday.
The blaze between Nocera Inferiore and Salerno may have been
caused by the explosion of a gas cylinder during maintenance
work.
One of the workers is seriously injured, with burns to the
hands and face, although not in a life-threatening condition,
sources said.
Rail traffic on the line was suspended.
