Reportedly, on December 12, 2019 at 07:30, coal products were delivered to Andijan by the “OOOTA Minirals” LLC in 13 semi-open wagons from the Republic of Kazakhstan.

According to the press service of the Interior Ministry, these semi-open wagons stopped at the Paytug railway station. After the coal products were unloaded, the empty wagons started to move downwards, as no chocks were fastened under the wheels of the wagons.

As a result, the semi-open wagon No. 63080675 fell into a ditch on the left side of the railroad, and the front wheels of the wagon No. 60745015 slipped out of the track.

No casualties have been reported. Investigative works are currently underway.
