There will be a delay in the introduction of the new Stadler FLIRT (Fast Light Innovative Regional Train) electric motor units, which was scheduled for deployment into traffic at the end of this month.
Today one of the new train sets derailed at speed while on a test run.

Four people injured - three from the railroad, including the engineer, one from the manufacturing company Stadler. The train set banged up pretty good - lucky that no one was seriously injured - broken ribs seems to have been the worst.
The national traffic safety commission is heading down there to pull the records from the black box and start examine the track etc.
NSB has announced that they will hold the introduction of the new sets until the traffic safety commisson has delivered their report and any recommendations has been acted upon.
