At around CST 2:10 am (UTC+8) on 23 May 2010, train K859 travelling from Shanghai to Guilin derailed in a mountainous area in Dongxiang County, within Fuzhou City, Jiangxi. At least 19 people died, and 71 were injured. A total of at least 53 people were rescued and another 280 were taken from the train. The death toll was expected to rise. Within 12 hours all survivors had been removed as the rescue effort got underway

According to the Ministry of Railways, the train was derailed by a landslide that had damaged the rails. The derailment followed days of heavy rain and flooding in the region, with recent storms in the area having led to the evacuation of 44,600 people and a further 1.46 million people having been affected by the storms. The derailment itself was caused by the train running through some track which had been damaged by a landslide. The incident caused eight of 17 carriages of the train to disconnect from the rails. Some carriages were found overturned, and one carriage was said to have "twisted and crushed another".

A passenger, who broke his arm but managed to escape the wreckage without help, reportedly "saw bits of bodies on the floor". A member of the railway police at the scene said, "Each carriage had 118 seats. It is not yet immediately known how many passengers were aboard". More than 280 passengers were evacuated from the train and 53 had been freed from the wreckage as of 9:00 CST on Sunday. Four legal medical experts were requested to assist with identification of bodies.

Workers remove the mud and rocks at the landslide site in Dongxiang County, east China's Jiangxi Province, May 23, 2010. All the nine derailed cars were removed from the site after the accident on Sunday. The train derailed after hitting a section of track that had been damaged in a landslide, and then the Shanghai-Kunming railway line was closed.

You'd think that if they knew enough to evacuate the area they'd check the tracks first before sending out.

Each carriage had 118 seats and eight of 17 carriages were wrecked and only 280 passengers were evacuated from the train and 53 had been freed from the wreckage. There should be plenty of gore there.
