The Waterside Neighbourhood Team along with colleagues from the PSNI Local Policing Team said they responded to reports of young people starting fires and engaging in anti social behaviour on the railway line in the area of Strathfoyle.
"We located these youths who have now removed themselves from the line. Thankfully, our colleagues in the control room acted quickly and in conjunction with Northern Ireland Railway, they were able to stop any trains passing.

It creates a massive risk to everyone involved in removing you from the area, and to the staff and passengers on the rail network," the PSNI said.
