Train collision on Storebaelt Bridge - 8 fatalities

Not a good start to the new year... R.I.P.

From Wikipedia:
Quote:
On 2 January 2019, on the Great Belt Fixed Link in Denmark, a passenger train collided with a semi-trailer that had fallen off a freight train. The accident happened amid a storm, which had closed down the bridge for road traffic, but not for rail traffic. Eight passengers were killed and 16 were injured. It was the worst rail accident in Denmark since 1988.
