Około godziny 5:30 rano kierowca autobusu o numerze taborowym 545, który tego dnia obsługiwał linię nr 7, jadąc ulicą Sielską od strony Dajtek, wjechał na nie zamknięty szlabanami przejazd kolejowy. W tym samym momencie w tył autobusu z impetem uderzyła lokomotywa rozpędzonego pociągu towarowego. Autobus wleczony był po torowisku prawie 300 metrów. W chwilę później przednią część autobusu zmiażdżył drugi pociąg towarowy, który nadjechał z przeciwnego kierunku. W katastrofie śmierć poniosło 6 osób, 14 zostało rannych. Tego samego dnia wojewoda olsztyński Sergiusz Rubaczewski powołał specjalną komisję, której zadaniem było zbadanie przyczyn katastrofy.
