Crews in Norway have successfully recovered a 40-tonne tank which was blocking a railway line into Trondheim station.
It followed an accident on the evening of October 26 when a tank came off a freight train loaded with military cargo, blocking traffic as a result.
Investigation teams from the Norwegian Civil Aviation Commission for Transport and Bane NOR attended the scene in the morning and by midday work began to remove the tank.
