On the BBC it doesnt seem to say that many are killed or injured. Lets hope not anyway, but thats very sad!

Re: 3,000 killed in N Korean train crash
Its down to 54 dead and 1300 injured now, though this is a communist press regime, so those numbers could be equally unreliable.

Re: 3,000 killed in N Korean train crash
Weren't those figures from the Red Cross, which, despite being called 'Red', isn't actually a communist organisation?
The initial '3000 dead' came from the South Koreans, who had no accurate information, but this figure was reported as fact.
Either way it sounds like an appalling incident - all of a sudden the British rail network's problems pale into insignificance.

i know and there have been a good few incidents on Chicagos commuter trains and Amtrack had a crash with 7 dead last month. Just doesn't make our press.
