A train has been held up for over an hour between the stations of Magliana and Ponte Galeria on the Rome Termini - Fiumicino airport railway. 

The Leonardo Express airport shuttle and several other metropolitan and regional lines are suspended in the direction of Rome, with severe delays going the other way too.
