From a BBC News article:
Damn. I love travelling by train, but this sort of thing makes me nervous.
I wonder where it was, exactly?
How awful. What a terrible news day this has been–first the plane in Milan, and now this.
Makes my already bad and depressed mood even worse.

Creepy - my husband was in Sanford today and he saw this train being loaded…
Just saw it on local news - 6 confirmed dead, 20 critical injuries, the video was scary - cars all over the place. very sad…
