At least five killed in French train crash
Rescue workers worked through the night to free bodies from the crumpled wreckage of a passenger train that collided head-on with a freight train near France’s north-eastern border with Luxembourg, killing at least five people.
The head-on impact just before noon yesterday lifted one of the passenger train’s cars on top of the other, leaving a pile of tangled metal on the tracks at Zoufftgen, about one mile south of the border.
