..."The derailment happened at 19:47 local time (16:47 GMT) on a section of track between Snezhetskaya and Beliye Berega, near the city of Bryansk, a post on the railways' Telegram page said.
Emergency workers were on the scene, and all operations on the line had been suspended, it added.
Videos of the incident posted on social media showed emergency vehicles driving along the length of the train. The BBC found no copies of the video prior to Tuesday evening, suggesting the images were new. Another video, posted by Russia's investigative committee, showed investigators at the site of the derailed carriages.
A similar incident happened on the Bryansk-Unecha line, much closer to the Ukrainian border, on Monday morning - on this occasion the locomotive and seven carriages caught fire.
The region - which also borders Belarus - has seen a number of acts of sabotage since Russia invaded Ukraine."...
