Two train accidents in eastern and north India have claimed at least 14 lives, police and railroad officials said Tuesday, AP reported. A speeding train rammed into an SUV at an unmanned railroad crossing in eastern India killing all 13 people in the vehicle, S.N. Pradhan, a top police officer, said Tuesday. The SUV was crossing the railroad track in Jharkhand state when it was hit by the passenger train late Monday night, he said. In a separate railway accident near the Indian capital, two trains collided, killing the driver of one of the trains. Neeraj Sharma, a railways spokesman, said at least 50 people were injured in the accident 60 kilometers (35 miles) south of New Delhi. Reduced visibility caused by pollution and the onset of winter may have contributed to the accident, Sharma said. -- SPA 11:10 LOCAL TIME 08:10 GMT تغريد
