COPENHAGEN, Denmark—At least one person was killed and four people injured when a train running along Norway’s northern coast derailed Thursday with 55 people on board, police said.

The Arctic Circle Express was on its way from Trondheim to the remote northern town of Bodoe, above the Arctic Circle, when it left the mountainside track. Police said they were alerted to the derailment at 1215 GMT.
