Firefighters and emergency teams (about 140) responded early evening near Cléon, south of Rouen.

A passenger described jolts, shattered windows, and stones from the track entering the carriage, leading to a shock that lasts even after the event.

The Rouen prosecutor’s office confirmed the train driver tested negative for drugs and alcohol.
