Yunnan, China – A heartbreaking train accident in the southwest region has tragically ended the lives of 11 railway workers, with two others sustaining injuries, authorities reported on Thursday.

The unfortunate event took place early in the morning at the Luoyang Town station in Yunnan province. The train, which was engaged in seismic equipment testing, collided with construction workers who had mistakenly entered the track area. Local railway officials noted that the train was “passing normally through a curve inside the station” at the time of the incident.

Emergency responders acted swiftly, and injured workers were promptly taken to local hospitals for necessary medical care. By midday, transportation services in the vicinity resumed normal operations.

The cause of this tragic accident is currently under investigation. Accidents of this nature are not unheard of in China, often attributed to ambiguous regulations and insufficient safety measures.

Officials have emphasized the need for stringent adherence to safety protocols to avert future incidents of this nature.
