Train collision in India

The crash, which occurred overnight at Sainthia station in West Bengal, claimed the lives of more than 60 people, many of the 120 injured are still on the verge of life and death. The tragedy occurred due to the fact that a train with passengers running at high speed crashed into a stationary train near Sainthia station. Because of the impact, the roof of the standing train demolished the bridge for pedestrians, located above the rails. Rescuers with the help of gas cutters had to release a large number of victims who were trapped due to the collapse of the bridge. The cause of this tragedy is still unknown. Some experts suggest that the collision occurred due to incorrect transmission of the signal to the driver.
