Death in dawn train crash
At least 22 people were killed and 26 injured when the Delhi-bound Goa Express, whose engine driver is suspected to have ignored a signal, rammed into the last coach of the Mewar Express which had stopped near Mathura at daybreak today.
The Goa Express hit the Udaipur City-Hazrat Nizamuddin Mewar Express near a bridge, 4 km from Mathura, around 5 am. Ten women and five children were among the dead — the last two coaches of the Mewar Express had reserved space for women and the physically challenged.
The guard of the Mewar Express and two from the pantry car staff of the Goa Express were also killed.
