Toll rises in China rail crash
The latest death toll jumped from initial reports of eight killed, as rescuers dug out more bodies from mangled and overturned train carriages, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
The train, bound for the tourist destination of Guilin, derailed around 2am in a mountainous area near Fuzhou city in eastern Jiangxi province.
Heavy rains caused a landslide that buried the railroad tracks, and the train derailed when it crashed into the huge mounds of dirt and debris.
