Train driver may be at fault for crash: SRT chief

FRIDAY, MARCH 27, 2015

POLICE expect to conclude an inquiry soon into a train crash that injured more than 50 people late on Thursday night.

“In two days, we should gather enough solid evidence to press charges against [the alleged] wrongdoers,” Provincial Police Region 1 deputy commissioner Maj-General Sanit Mahathavorn said Friday.
The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) has cleared the track and said the accident did not disrupt overall train services. 
SRT governor Wutthichart Kanlayanamit said the ongoing investigation suggested that the driver of train No. 107 travelling from Bangkok to Denchai failed obey a stop signal.
