Thai train in deadly derailment

A passenger train bound for Bangkok has derailed in Thailand's Hua Hin coastal resort district, killing at least seven people and injuring dozens more. Six of the train's 16 carriages went off the tracks. "From the information we have now, seven were found dead at the scene. They were all Thais," said Police Col Krisna Jamsaweng, chief of Hua Hin's police station. Forty-five people had been sent for treatment. It may take a few days to reopen the railway.
