Danish train was traveling at ‘relatively high speed' when it hit farm truck: Police

Danish police said Saturday that an express train that struck a farm truck, killing one person and injuring 27, was traveling at a 'relatively high speed' when the collision occurred. The drivers of both the train and the truck were among those critically injured in Friday's crash at a railway crossing in Bjerndrup, southwest Denmark. Police said a 60-year-old woman was killed, while five of the 27 injured remain in critical condition. The train, which was traveling from Copenhagen to the western town of Sønderborg, hit the truck as it crossed the tracks at a site without a barrier. Authorities said the investigation will determine whether the light and sound signals at the crossing were functioning at the time. Local media reported that a similar accident occurred in July just three kilometers (two miles) away, when a 24-year-old driver was killed after his car was struck by a train at another crossing.
