It was supposed to be a relaxing and fun Ferragosto. The excursion in contact with the wildest nature was cancelled because the Trenino Verde stopped forty seconds after leaving the Arbatax station . The tourist convoy, managed by Arst, derailed («derailed according to Arst) from the ordinary route with the last part of the carriage coming off the tracks.
The train never arrived in Lanusei and the 80 passengers on board (many foreigners) were forced to reinvent the day of celebration. Some of them asked for compensation, others appreciated the alternatives so as not to completely throw away the organized tour and reached Lanusei by car . Yesterday on the tracks of the Arbatax station investigations were underway into the dynamics, also to understand what the exact causes were that originated the accident. Tomorrow the Trenino Verde should resume traveling along the usual route.
The convoy had just boarded when the Trenino went off the tracks. The driver, in time, managed to stop the gear - already quite low - preventing more serious consequences. Barely forty seconds after departure and everyone was back on the ground, in short.
