Yes, I will need to google for any info and the rail prang investigation mob in Greece.
This sounds similar to an incident in Italy a few years ago.
Safeworking that we would call Telephone Block.
A very OLD system for modern day rail activity.
The Station Master involved in the Italian prang was arrested.
Though, I never heard any further report.
We had two cattle trains facing each other in the Central West NSW a couple of years ago.
Trackwork had cancelled the normal safeworking systems and paperwork implemented.
Just a simple mistake.
Thankfully the trains avoided each other as one was stationary and the other percolating at the 60 kph road speed.
Nothing is perfect.
