British Transport Police say they were called to train near Crosskeys station.
There was a report that a group of boys had lit a fire on board.
"Rail staff extinguished the fire and officers removed six boys from the train," a BTP spokesperson said.

"Their details were taken, and enquiries are ongoing.’”
