Tragedy In Brussels


Two trains collided head on in a suburb of the Belgian capital:

Here are some details:
Rescue crews had to deal with freezing temperatures and blizzard conditions when the crash happened about 0830 local time (0730 GMT) on Monday, near Halle, on the outskirts of Brussels.

The front carriages smashed into each other and were forced up into the air, damaging overhead power lines.

As of Monday evening, officials said 15 men and three women had been killed.

A truly tragic event, and I hope they find out what exactly went wrong.
