Oh my! Bone chilling video. Not a good month for trains - Fatal crash in Paris, another one here in Canada, and then this. Not a good month for planes either...what on Earth is happening???

RIP to the victims.

It's reported the train was travelling at 190 km/h where the max speed was 80 km/h Scary
