vanessa macarthur was, i jumped on him that we fell down. a woman with her child was with us. the train caught fire next to us, and this guy found a whole. so we all managed to get out. a little bit of old train had been 90 degrees and had fallen over the cliff. half of it was hanging in the air and the whole thing was on fire. there were 5 wounded where i was an estimated 82 passengers are missing, but only about half that number of bodies has been recovered. the rest may never be retrieved because the fire that engulfed the 1st 2 cars of this train was so hot, more than a 1000 degrees celsius. we're told it may have cremated the victims exactly where they were killed. greek prime minister give ya cause me to thank you, was at the scene, even as the search for survivors continued. and barbara had to fuel the ownership. we are talking about an unspeakable tragedy. i thought to day at 1st and foremost
10:04 pm
with the relatives of the victims, a duty is to treat the wounded and from there to identify the bodies. dozens of people stood in line to donate blood at the hospital in the central town of larissa and angry families are demanding answers. unless we want all those responsible to pay for these messages, this greek mess train drilling in 2023. it's insane. and on a double track, even from what we're hearing, they went from double to a single track and crashed. a station master has been arrested as investigators try to establish how 2 trains came to be on the same track. jobs are hopeless al jazeera, near larissa and john shah from his joins his life at from the sight of the train crash, nana rous as to what's happening there now, john well, lauren, the last survivors of this train crash were pulled away from the wreckage about 20 hours ago now, so i don't think any real hope is held out for more survivors. i think at this
10:05 pm
point, it's just a gruesome process of picking up the pieces. plus whatever bodies or parts of bodies might still be found in the wreckage. earlier on, we heard that the body of one of the 2 train drivers had been found and fire service was in the process of extricating it. we don't know what state it was in, but we've seen aerial footage of the 2 train engines from our drone. one of them is completely obliterated, and the other has been smashed up until, ah, you know, half way down the length of the engine. so i don't think that at this point, they're expecting any more survivors, just bodies. and the premise is spoken. if a human error being the cause of the crash he did, and there is a alleged confession by the larisa station master made to the prosecutor of the

10:07 pm
fact that there are political responsibilities here. and the prime minister has promised that a nonpartisan committee of experts will be appointed to hold an inquiry into the precise causes of this particular crash, but also into the longer term and broader causes of the failure of the greek states to modernize the rail infrastructure. the infrastructure being the particular responsibility of the government, not the operations. those have been privatized to a separate company. the italian state rail operator are but the but the government is responsible still for providing all of the on the rail track, the switching the electrification. all of that wasn't done into and certainly the double track throughout the system has not been built. so there will also be questions asked about why over not just because of this government,
