DUP spokesman expresses concern about fire on Belfast to Dublin train

DUP regional development spokesman Jimmy Spratt has expressed concern about a fire on on the Belfast to Dublin train last evening.

Mr Spratt said it is important that Northern Ireland Railways carry out a full investigation into these events and establish the cause behind them.

More than 100 passengers were evacuated from the train when it was forced to stop near Newry after the fire was discovered in the engine compartment.

No-one was hurt in the incident.
