At least 29 dead in Thailand after huge crane collapses onto moving train

At least 29 people were killed and 80 injured after a construction crane collapsed onto a moving train in northeastern Thailand.

The incident occurred on Wednesday morning in the Sikhio district of Nakhon Ratchasima province, causing the train to derail and catch fire.

Police expect the death toll to rise as rescuers search through the damaged and derailed carriages.

The crane was involved in a project to build an elevated high-speed road through the Sikhio region.

Authorities have brought the fire under control and are continuing to search for people trapped inside the train.
