Three people killed and more than 50 injured in Czech Republic train crash
Czech Railways said an international high-speed train that connects the western city of Plzen with Munich in Germany and a local passenger train were involved in the collision.
Three people died and more than 50 others were injured when a fast train from Munich collided with a commuter passenger train in the Czech Republic.
Eight people were seriously injured with a small number of passengers being transferred to hospital by helicopter.
Another 50 people suffered minor injuries in the crash near the western Czech town of Domazlice, the regional rescue service said.
The authorities said the Munich-to-Prague express train ran through a stop signal and collided with the local commuter service.
A police spokeswoman said the three dead were the drivers of the two trains and a passenger, all of them Czech.
Footage on Czech Television showed the damaged driver's cabin of the fast train's locomotive, as well as the front part of the local train.
Both trains remained upright on or close to the tracks.
