umccall+FollowSpeeding Train Disaster in MexicoDid you hear about the Mexico train derailment? The Interoceanic Train was going way over the speed limit on a curve—like 9 mph too fast—when it derailed, killing 14 and injuring nearly 100. The engineer’s already been arrested, and now prosecutors are looking to file criminal charges. No issues with the tracks or train itself, just pure reckless speed. The whole operation is shut down until they figure out what went wrong. Wild, right? #Transportation #Mexico #TrainAccident10Share
Anne Clark+FollowCrane Collapse Chaos on Thai TrainTotal nightmare: a crane from a high-speed rail project in Thailand crashed onto a passenger train, derailing it and killing at least 32 people. The construction company behind it has a history of deadly accidents, and now officials are talking about blacklisting repeat offenders. Survivors are sharing heartbreaking stories, and the whole project—backed by China—is under major scrutiny. This is one of those moments that really makes you question safety on big infrastructure projects. #Transportation #Thailand #TrainAccident00Share
