Another train collision in Ermelo

from Midday Live Hosted by SAfm

There's been another train collision early this morning in Ermelo in Mpumalanga. Two trains reportedly collided at low speed at a depot. At least four people were hurt. This is the 3rd accident within a space of two weeks, with one resulting in the death of 19 people when a Shosholoza Meyl train collided with a truck before bursting into flames in the Free State two weeks ago. Transnet Spokesperson Michael Aspofovitz gave our presenter Stephen Kirker an update.
