No one was hurt when a passenger train stopped on the tracks near Debert, N.S. last week, but according to a VIA Rail employee, the incident may have been more serious than the company has revealed.
Around 5 p.m. on March 20, the train carrying 77 passengers from Halifax to Montreal was forced to stop after striking “debris” on the Springhill Sub, said VIA Rail in a statement at the time.
