Indian Prime Minister Modi vows 'stringent punishment' for those responsible for horror train derailment which killed more than 300 - which minister says was caused by signalling error'

印度总理莫迪誓言对造成300多人死亡的恐怖火车脱轨事故的责任人进行“严厉惩罚”，据称这是信号错误造成的

responsible for a horror train crash which has killed more than 300 people, as early investigations point to a signalling error as the cause.

The derailment happened after an error in the electronic signaling system that led a train to wrongly change tracks, India's railways minister said on Sunday.

It comes after a three-train collision on Friday night in Odisha killed at least 300 people and left some 900 needing hospital treatment.

对一起造成300多人死亡的恐怖火车相撞事故负责，早期调查指出信号错误是事故原因。

印度铁道部长周日表示，脱轨事故发生在电子信号系统出现错误导致列车错误换轨之后。

周五晚上，奥迪萨邦发生三列火车相撞事故，造成至少300人死亡，约900人住院治疗。

Let's not blame the antiquated 200 year old trains and rail systems leftover by the British but the little guy who's a nobody

不要怪英国遗留下来的有200年历史的陈旧火车和铁路系统，要怪就怪一个无名小卒

Like they blamed Union Carbide years ago...

就像他们几年前指责联合碳化物公司一样。

First thing they need to stop having opposing trains on the same tracks. All train tracks should be one direction, except in cases where there is only one track. Reducing speed in congested areas would reduce collisions. All trains and their systems need to be updated, and that applies to the U.S. as well.

首先，他们同一轨道上不能跑反方向的列车。所有列车应为一个方向，只有一条轨道的情况除外。在拥堵地区降低车速可以减少碰撞概率。所有列车及其系统都需要更新，这也适用于美国。

Intesting to see what happens when the cause is found to be lack of government investment, cos they spent it all on tge space programme.

当发现原因是政府缺乏投资时，他们想看看会发生什么，他们把所有的钱都用来探索太空的计划上了

I suppose this is our fault too.

Can't do that.Rishi is the PM pf your country.

不是那样的。里希苏纳克是你们国家的首相啊

Reef Watcher, Over here, United Kingdom

Perhaps if they didn't spend money on space projects and nuclear weapons then they could invest in their people and infrastructure. And how about banning overcrowding and external hangers on.

也许如果他们不把钱花在太空项目和核武器上，那么他们可以投资于人员培训和基础设施建设上。

MomL, Maine, United States

How many were riding on top of train?

有多少人是坐在火车顶上的？

Shep Bush, Toronto, Canada

Many travel on top of the rail carriages - was this the cause of high number of fatalities?

许多人坐在火车车顶上？这是否是造成大量死亡的原因？

sadJumBean, Los Angeles, United States

Maybe they were using Optical Sensors. The suns full spectrum light can cause a false activation.

也许他们使用的是光学传感器。太阳的全光谱光会导致错误的激活。

sadJumBean, Los Angeles, United States

Signalling error? I don't think so. More than likely it was caused by a failure to maintain the tracks properly.

信号错误？我认为不是这样的。很可能是没有正确维护铁路造成的。

When are liberals going to blame Trump for this?

There you go, blame one or two people instead of fixng the real issue. Sounds about right

好了，抓一两个替罪羊，而不是真正解决问题。听起来不错

Skredzilla, Maidstone, United Kingdom

The most populated country on earth with some of the worst infrastructure in the world... what could go wrong?

地球上人口最多的国家，基础设施却是世界上最糟糕的。会出什么问题？

Send Mayor Pete over. He'll fix everything.

Probably a British signalling system. So no doubt compenstation will be sought from the UK.

可能是英国的信号系统。因此，毫无疑问，印度会要求英国进行赔偿。

oberon, edinburgh

No need to look for some poor railway worker to blame. Modi needs to look at himself and his government. Instead of spending money on vanity projects such as space programmes and nuclear weapons they need to build or buy some modern up to date trains and enforce safety standards.

没有必要找一些可怜的铁路工人来当替罪羊。莫迪应当审视自己和他的政府。他们应当自己造，或购买一些现代化的最新列车，并严格执行安全标准，而不是把钱花在太空计划和核武器等虚荣的项目上。
