[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 860020, member: 12952"] Oooops............ [LEFT]Derailed bullet train coaches fall off bridge in east China[/LEFT] WENZHOU, July 23 (Xinhua) -- Two coaches of a bullet train fell off a bridge after derailing in east China's Zhejiang Province late Saturday, local fire fighting sources said. Witnesses said one of the coaches had fallen to ground, while the other one was hanging in the air. The bridge is about 20 to 30 meters above the ground. "Rescuers have dragged many passengers out of the coach falling on the ground," a witness told Xinhua over phone. The details of casualties are unknown at the moment. The train numbered D3115, running from the provincial capital Hangzhou to the southeastern city of Fuzhou, derailed at the section of Shuangyu Town in Wenzhou City of Zhejiang at 8:34 p.m., said fire fighters from Wenzhou. The accident occurred after the train was hit by lightning and lost drive, and then rear-ended by another bullet train, the official microblog of Hangzhou TV "News 60 minutes" program quoted a local railway official as saying.
