Train Accident

Yesterday there was a terrible train accident in Buenos Aires. The train didn't brake soon enough while coming into the station and smashed into the platform barrier. 49 people were killed and at least 600 of the 800 or so passengers were injured. I thought I would post this article to let people know what's going on down here. This is one of the worst transit accidents in Argentine history and everyone is in shock and solidarity for the families of those injured or killed. To read more you can go to the New York Times:
