Italy train crash: Two dead in high-speed derailment
Two people have been killed after a high-speed train derailed near the northern Italian city of Lodi, emergency services say.
Both of the dead are thought to be drivers. At least one person, a cleaner on the train, had significant but not life-threatening injuries. The train was travelling from Milan to the southern city of Salerno. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-51397027 |
Thanks for that Phillip.

180 mph ... frightening

Some photos and comments suggest after track work on a set of points that the points were not set correctly.
I gather that the points are high speed due to a moveable frog. One wonders about the associated signalling. Will hafta await the accident report to glean details. Steve. |
