Four people were killed in eastern India yesterday when a goods train collided with a Delhi-bound passenger express, police said.
One passenger carriage was thrown off the track in the state of Jharkhand in the crash, which occurred around dawn in foggy conditions.
“Four people have died and five have been admitted to hospital with injuries,” local police official Vijaya Laxmi told AFP by telephone.
“There are no further reported injuries, we are now repairing the track and expect things to get back to normal in a few hours,” she added. “There was fog, so I think the visibility was low.”
