I've read the train didn't have a driver. Seriously? A dangerous cargo on a driverless train?

yeah i've heard that as well. but they're not really sure of anything, so far they're still researching the ones missing and there's no more news about what's going on, only images of black smoke and interview of the people of the city. I dont know anyone from there, but hope there arent many human casualties....

There are now reports that a neighboring towns fire department responded to a fire on the train some hours before the disaster.

Someone needs to explain why the crew thought it was a good idea to park a train of that length and weight on a grade above a town where the tracks make a turn.
