Damaged Pendolino arrives in capital

A Pendolino train which was badly damaged in a head-on collision with a truck on the tracks last Wednesday, has completed its journey to Prague, where experts will try and retrieve additional recording equipment still missing and assess how much of the train can be salvaged. Experts from the Italian manufacturer are also due to examine the wreckage. Last Wednesday, the Pendolino smashed at full speed into a transport truck caught on the tracks in Studénka. Had the truck's driver tried to break through the barrier, the accident might still have been averted. Three people lost their lives.
