On Monday afternoon, hundreds of people boarded a train to travel from Abuja to Kaduna.
But the service never reached its destination.
Explosives were used to derail the train and members of armed gangs opened fire on the carriages.
A number of people have reportedly been killed and there are fears that more have been abducted.
For some time, train has been considered the safest way to travel between the capital and Kaduna.
Kidnappings had become increasingly common on the roads between the two cities.
But this is the second attack on the railways in six months.
So, who鈥檚 behind these latest attacks? And why are Nigeria鈥檚 trains being targeted?
