Overhead Line Disruption: Passengers Initially Not Allowed to Leave Train

Due to the unclear operational status, initially, according to ORF Niederösterreich, the 30 passengers were not allowed to leave the train, and the emergency services were not allowed to approach the accident site. Once "de-energized" was confirmed, the passengers were guided over ladders onto the track bed and then onto a service road. They were then transported by fire department vehicles to Zellerndorf station. ÖBB set up a rail replacement service.
