Train Hits Dump Truck Loaded with Sand Stuck on Rails
Train No. 179 Surabaya Sundanese majors Gubeng-Kiaracondong hit a truck loaded with sand at the crossing number 450 Km 369 + 7/8 in Kubangkangkung village, Cilacap, Central Java, Indonesia. The incident occurred at 17:35 pm between Station and Station Jeruklegi Kawunganten on Purwokerto, Monday (01/11/2016) night. The train had six economy-class carriages, a carriage to eat, and one carriage loaded with goods which is pulled by a locomotive CC 2039816. The accident was caused by a truck that was not strong enough to make the climb after passing through the crossing so it rolled backwards. Not long after the train arrived and a collision could not be avoided. |
