Dutch Metro train crash

A Dutch Metro train has crashed through the buffer stops at De Akkers station, Spijkenisse in the Netherlands, coming to rest precariously perched on a piece of sculpture in the shape of a whale's tail!
Fortunately, the driver was the only person on board and had to be rescued and thankfully only suffering from shock.

There are some who are suggesting that this was staged as a publicity stunt, but it seems to have been widely reported as a genuine accident.
