An explosion on a railroad track in Kharkov oblast in Ukraina (province) Sunday night damaged a rail and a car, but caused no injury according to Russian language news accounts.

According to a news report on the Russian language korrespondent.net news website, the explosion took place Sunday night, a day after another bombing at the Stena indoor cafe on Rymarska street in Kharkov city.

The bomb at the Stena bar wounded eight unidentified patrons of the bar.

According to the news report, the explosion damaged the fifth railroad car and a length of rail. The train was in the Novopokrovka Chuguevsky district, and was hauling clay in seven cars. The others in the 58-car train were empty.

The explosion caused little delay in rail traffic in the region and the track was repaired quickly. The report also said that traces of an explosive were found at the scene of the explosion.

Neither local nor national officials have characterized the explosion as an act of terrorism so far. The bombing at the Stena cafe was called an act of terrorism.
