Major oops at a station not far from where I live.

[Whitehouse]

Stavoren, The Netherlands.

Just happened 4 hours before posting this message. A service train just rammed a buffer and carreered on top of the platform, went right trough a watersports shop and ended on a square. It also pushed an empty Diesel wagon right through the shop. In all the train traveled about 100 meters past the buffer!

According to police reports the mess is enormous and it's a miracle that only two people suffered injuries.....

I have pictures later.


The end of the line...


That yellow thing there, that's the buffer.


The watersports shop. The train made a hole in the side 30 meter wide![/i]


The square where the train finally stopped.
