Car dragged along by Almtalbahn: driver seriously injured

The woman at the wheel was trapped and could only be freed from the wreck after about an hour. The seriously injured came to the hospital with the Martin 3 emergency doctor helicopter. The railway line was interrupted for around two hours, the police and fire brigade reported.

At around 9:00 a.m., the train crashed into the car on the unguarded level crossing. The car was dragged along for almost 40 meters before the Almtalbahn came to a standstill. The railway line had to be closed for more than two hours for the clean-up work. The railcar was so badly damaged in the collision that it could no longer continue. No occupants were injured on the train itself.
