At least 2 killed as cargo & passenger trains collide in Germany

At least two people have died and several more have been injured as two trains collided at a railway station in the town of Aichach in Bavaria, Germany. The incident occurred at around 9:20 pm local time, when a freight train loaded with wood and a passenger train were arriving at the station. About ten people sustained injuries in the collision, including two seriously, Augsburger Allgemeine reported. It’s unclear what led to the incident. Local media reported that the crash might have happened after one of the trains failed to switch to another track.
