This is a serious accident but not new to Sri Lanka. About 25 years ago, I was on a train Anuradhapura when this happened.

From far away very interesting to read the news paper daily.

These are pretty old Rumanian built carriages brought brand new in the 1970's during Mrs. Bandaranayaka's regime. CGR in par with other cities has not improved a single bit and is a shame and a pest to mother Lanka.
