30.8, derailment, fatalities

Tibet: the world’s highest railway which runs from China to Tibet has suffered a blow to its credibility with the derailment of one of its new trains causing delays that affected more than 4,000 passengers. The 16- carriage train from the southwestern city of Chongqing derailed near Co Nag Lake about 400km northeast of the Tibetan capital, Lhasa. Only the dining carriage came off the tracks.
