Ship rams into railway bridge in Denmark

Late on wednesday, a cargo ship ran into the railway bridge over Limfjorden in Aalborg, Denmark.
A train was going to enter the bridge minutes after the accident.

The bridge was damaged and is going to be closed for 6 months, thus cutting of northern jutland from the rest of the railway world.
The ship will remain in port until while the cause of the accident is investigated.
