Train traffic heavily delayed in Rome

(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 2 - Train traffic has been severely slowed down in the Rome railway junction after circulation was suspended early on Wednesday due to a fault in the power supply line at the stations of Roma Termini and Roma Tiburtina.
    The cause of the fault is currently being ascertained by technicians who are working to solve the problem, railway sources said.
    Repercussions are being felt along the backbone between Milan and Naples and the routes from Turin, with rescheduling of services, delays of up to 240 minutes, and some cancellations, the sources said.
    Overall, more than 100 trains were cancelled, totally or partially, due to the power line disconnection at Rome's Termini and Tiburtina stations while over 40 high-speed and Intercity trains reported delays of over an hour as of midday Wednesday.
    The CEO of Italian rail operator Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI), Gianpiero Strisciuglio, said the "rare fault affected the electrical cabin" powering the Rome railway junction and that its causes were still being determined but a cyberattack had been ruled out. (ANSA).
