The train was on its way from Duesseldorf to Berlin. It was not clear how fast the train was going at the time of the accident.
Police said the last three of the train's seven carriages had derailed for unknown reasons, and that all passengers had been able to then get off the train without needing help. The Bundespolizei said the train and tracks were "seriously damaged" and it was unclear how long the stretch of track where the derailment happened would be closed.
Police in Dortmund referred all comment to their officer on the scene, who could not immediately be reached Monday evening.
