TERRIBLE TRAIN ACCIDENT NEAR BRUSSELS
I got a few emails asking me about the terrible train accident which happened this morning at 8.30 between Halle and Buizingen. My friend Ilona who lives 5 min from there woke up by a big bang. Two trains had crashed into each other frontally. There are at least 25 dead and more than 150 people injured, it's just terrible. It is a very important line to Brussels and there were many people on the train to go to work. Fortunately we have school holidays for the moment, otherwise there would have been a lot of children too. Just now the King is visiting the place. I will know more.

I am so sorry. I had not heard about it.
ReplyDeleteHorrible news. My thoughts are with everyone involved!
ReplyDeleteOh Gattina, that is terrible. My prayers are with the people who have lost loved ones in this accident and the many people injured.
ReplyDeleteSending prayers.
ReplyDeletegosh this looks scary.
ReplyDeleteWonder why it happened?
:(
Thank you for sharing this eye witness account, Gattina. I'm sure it will be on the news tonight and papers in the morning. As you say, thank goodness that children were on school holidays or the toll would have been greater. I hope you did not know anyone who was involved. Although that's probably too much to hope for. . .
ReplyDeleteSounds pretty horrendous. Hope none of your friends and family were affected.
ReplyDeleteI saw that on world news here and right away I thought about you Gattina. So glad your ok. What a terrible tragedy. We had one very similar here near Washington DC..almost the same scenario, back in the fall.
ReplyDeleteSo unbelievably sad! I, too, have heard this on the news reports here in the U.S. So sorry this happened...
ReplyDeleteI thought of you as soon as we saw the news and hoped that you were safe. A sad day for the people of Brussels and Begium.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about you last night when I watch the news on tv....my thoughts are with the one suffering right now, and to the family that lost a dear one.
ReplyDeleteOh Gattina! How AWFUL! How in the WORLD did this HAPPEN? Oh let me guess - computer error! What a horrible accident... My prayers go out to all families affected...
ReplyDeleteThat must have scared the b'jeebers out of Ilona!
I immediately thought of you when I heard this news because I know you write about your trips in the trains. so sorry to hear about this- but glad you are fine.
