50's railbus derailed after colliding with car in Sweden
Today at 9:41 emergency services were called to Funbo outside Uppsala, Sweden. A train consisting of two 50's railbuses had collided with a light truck at a crossing and derailed.
Three persons of the 13 on board are reported injured, but only minor injuries. Two persons were stuck in the derailed car but were helped by the fire- and rescue department. All passengers were transported to the nearby fire station for crisis management. The damages on the train are unclear at this moment but the work with putting it back on track has already started. The crossing has no barriers but have bells and lights. http://www.unt.se/uppland/uppsala/ju...k-4321082.aspx (Swedish but with pictures) http://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/upp...ck-med-lastbil (Swedish but with pictures) |
Bad news, but fortunate that the injuries are not too bad. Hopefully the railbuses can be repaired. Richard
