During Saturday afternoon, a Norrtåg would actually go from Duved to Sundsvall. But the train has been canceled because there is a lack of staff. Instead, bus replaces the affected route. It was OPEN first to tell about.
A train earlier in the day that went in the opposite direction was also canceled for the same reason.
– We received emergency sick leave last Friday and then the staff was not enough, says Stefan Linder who is the press officer at Vy tåg, which is the operator of Norrtåg.
Canceled trains also during Sunday
The lack of staff means that some trains will also be canceled on Sunday. Stefan Linder points out that in all cases they will deploy replacement buses. However, he urges passengers to keep an eye on the traffic information to know if this will be the case.
Can the problems continue even after the weekend?
– No, we hope not. From Monday it looks better, he says.
