BANGKOK: At least 20 people were killed and more than 40 injured after a freight train collided with
a tour bus near Bangkok on Sunday (Oct 11), officials said.
The collision happened at around 8am (9am Singapore time) at Khlong Khwaeng Klan station in
Chachoengsao province, about 50km east of the capital Bangkok.
There were about 60 passengers in the chartered bus travelling from neighbouring Samut Prakan
province to a temple in Chachoengsao, said province governor Maitree Tritilanond.
They were planning to offer yellow robes to monks – a traditional ceremony held within a month of
the end of Buddhist Lent, he told reporters.
The bus was on the track when the train hit, said the province's disaster management agency. There
was no barricade, it added.
Dozens of injured passengers were rushed to nearby medical facilities for treatment, said provincial
hospital director Sombat Chutimanukul.
