Train collision in Chile kills at least 2 people and injures several others

SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — At least two people have been killed and nine others injured when a train full of passengers collided head-on with another train on a test run just outside Chile’s capital of Santiago. Investigations were underway Thursday to determine the cause of the crash, which vaulted one car fully on top of a car from the other train. Authorities identified the two people killed as crew members operating a speed test on the service train that had 10 workers on board.
