Two trains loaded with passengers collided in a horrifying crash at a remote
railroad station, killing at least 120 people early Monday, a local official
told CNN. The BBC reports officials as saying at least one of the trains was
carrying explosives in a military compartment which may have caused the
trains to catch fire after the crash. Officials said the collision occurred
with such force that they initially thought a bomb had exploded. However,
they later said it was an accident.
