Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The circulation of trains from Moatize, in the central Mozambican province of Tete, to Cuamba in Niassa has been interrupted since Monday because of a derailment in which two locomotives and 36 wagons loaded with coal came off the tracks.<\/p>\n

This is part of the rail line from Moatize across southern Malawi to the northern line and the mineral port of Nacala-a-Velha.<\/p>\n

According to a press release from Nacala Logistics, the company that operates the Nacala Corridor, the derailment occurred about 590 kilometres from Moatize in Tobue locality, in the Nacala district of Mecanhelas.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo far, Nacala Logistics has not recorded any injuries or any damage to the surrounding communities\u201d, said the release.<\/p>\n

The company added that the temporary interruption of traffic along this stretch of line will allow the restoration of conditions to resume the safe circulation of trains.<\/p>\n

Nacala Logistics said an investigation is under way to ascertain the causes of the accident.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the accident occurred, Nacala Logistics has mobilized several logistical and operational teams to ensure that traffic can move along the line again as quickly as possible\u201d, said the release. But it gave no forecast for how long the repairs will take.<\/p>\n
