An investigation is underway after a train overshot the end of a rail line in Adelaide's western suburbs.
Public Transport Authority executive director Scott White said the train lost traction about 6:30pm on Tuesday and collided with a buffer stop at Grange Railway Station and derailed next to Military Road.
"Essentially it means the train sort of slips, so it never stopped and the wheels span and the train continued," he told ABC Radio Adelaide.
"And then of course we've got a buffer stop there which is there for this exact reason, it did its job and stopped that train from going any further."
