Baku-APA. Forty people were injured in a train crash on the Norway-Sweden border after two carriages behind a locomotive derailed, APA reports quoting presstv.ir website.

The train was carrying 300 passengers from Oslo to Stockholm when the accident took place near the Norwegian village of Skotterud on Friday evening, the Associated Press reported.

Norwegian police spokesman Trond Sulen says the cause of the derailment is yet to be established.

However, the police suspect that a crack in a wheel of the first carriage may have caused the incident.

Two of the passengers are seriously injured but their injuries are not life threatening, Sulen said.
