Trains Collide in Belgium, Killing 18 and Injuring 55
Two trains collided head-on in the town of Halle; at the time of this writing, the cause of the collision is still unknown. It was snowing at the time of the crash but not a great deal of snow was coming down. It took about 30 minutes for rescue crews to arrive at the horrific scene; some passengers did not even know there had been a head-on crash.
The collision occurred during the morning rush hour.
Nine years ago, eight people died in a train collision in Belgium. It was suggested that the cause of the crash was a language issue between a French-speaking signalman and a Flemish-speaking one.
Monday’s train collision is one of the deadliest train accidents in Europe.
