Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 REVADIM, Israel (AP) -- A passenger train collided with a coal delivery truck in central Israel on Tuesday afternoon, killing seven people and wounding 191 others, rescue officials said. Police said the crash appeared to be an accident. The passenger train, carrying 300 to 400 people from Tel Aviv to the southern city of Beersheba, was traveling as fast as 130 kph (80 mph) when it hit a coal delivery truck about 6 p.m. (1500 GMT) on a remote section of the track that contained a crossing but no traffic light, said Avi Zohar, a Magen David Adom spokesman. http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/meast/06/21/israel.trainwreck.ap/index.html Dear List Members, Dasha is Su/Ve/Ma/Ve/Me.
