In Johannesburg, South Africa two commuter trains collided on Thursday. One train crashed into the other stationary train, about 150 people were injured. There are many children among the wounded but "Many are walking wounded and already left. There are 20 people in
serious condition and one, the driver of the second train, is in a
critical condition"
Thankfully not many people were hurt that badly. Hopefully everyone involved and their families are okay!

It's lucky that no one died, which is surprising since it was a serious accident! I hope everyone makes a full recovery.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the conductor of the moving train was doing not to notice the stationary train. It's sad, but great that no one is dead.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand how trains collide...How do you miss a huge train in front of you?

I have to agree with Kennedi. How did the conductor not see the train in front of them?
ReplyDeleteIt is awful that this happen hopefully everyone recovers. I also find it strange that the conductor hit the train.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree. How can you not see a train coming? I'm glad that no one died from this accident and hopefully everyone will recover quickly!
