EC train crash: human error may have played a role | News Article

King Williams Town - Human error may have played a role in this week's collision between two trains at Peelton near King Williams Town in which two people were killed.

They were Prasa employees, Piet Baloyi and Yingwani Shivambu. Several other people were seriously injured, including a train driver and an assistant who jumped off the train just before the crash. The Rail Safety Regulator says the preliminary report into the accident will be finalised today. Spokesperson, Babalwa Mpendu, says their inspectors completed their preliminary investigation of the crash site. Algoa FM
