There was an explosion at the mobile catering burger van which occurred near Stowmarket train station, forcing nearby buildings to be evacuated.
The explosion is believed to have been caused by a leaking gas cylinder in the catering cabin next to the station.
The public was urged to steer clear of the area and trains were unable to stop until late Saturday night.
A Suffolk Police statement said:
“Police, firefighters and paramedics are currently at the scene of an incident in Stowmarket.
“Police were called at 8.20pm to reports of an explosion in Station Road, near to the train station.
