Casualties

The two main italian newspapers (corriere and repubblica) both report 14 deaths, not 16. --Walkabout86 (talk) 21:54, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Italian article states 17 dead. I've seen a ref that says 14 dead and 3 missing, which would give 17. Best English ref we have at the moment states 16 dead. Total can be revised once it is confirmed. That is why there is a banner at the top of the article. Mjroots (talk) 07:37, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Another train involved?

The Independent mentions a second oncoming train. Did this train collide with the derailed wagon, or did it stop before a collision occurred? Mjroots (talk) 07:37, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
