One of the newly procured Warri-Itakpe standard gauge train coaches was gutted by fire on Tuesday evening and railway workers bearing tree branches tried to put out the fire.
A video trending online shows Nigerian Railway Workers struggling to put out the inferno with leaves, blankets and other objects due to the non-availability of fire extinguishers on board the train coaches.
Speaking early on Wednesday, a staff of the NRC said the cause of the fire is still unknown.
