At the time of the accident, it was traveling at a speed estimated below 30 km/h on a single-rail stretch in the Verona-Bologna line near the abandoned station of Bolognina di Ronchi di Crevalcore.

Fifty people escaped the crash unscathed and were brought to Crevalcore by a bus provided by the comune.
