Along the train rails there are two street and many houses. 50 persons are in the hospital in very badly health status.
13 persons lost their life, included a child dead carbonized.
Flames were 200 m high, 1000 people have a house nomore.
Many persons were there in that tragic moment.
The train derailed for the high speed, but also for the bad maintenance of the rails. In Italy the maintanance of the Rails Net is a great problem because the directors of Trenitalia, the national rail service, don't care of it.
Trains are in very awful conditions, there are always dalays and few days ago a freight train in Prato (near Florence) went off the rails blocking the whole italian rails for two days!
This tragedy could be avoid!
