TRAINS COLLIDE HEAD-ON IN POLAND, AT LEAST 16 DEAD INCLUDING AMERICAN

An American woman is among the at least 16 people killed, while more than 50 more were injured after two trains collided head-on in Poland over the weekend.
Rhiannon Mills with FOX sister network SKY News has details:

Audio clip:

It’s believed that both the trains were heading towards each other on the same track as one was traveling to Krakow, and the other to Warsaw.  A member of the state railway company said the Krakow train should not have been on that line.  Maintenance work was being carried out on one of the tracks close to where it happened.
Poland’s Transport Minister has described this as one of the worst railway accidents of the last few years.  Only as daylight comes may the cause of the crash become more clear.
