Johannesburg level crossing accident

Encyclopedia : J : JO : JOH : Johannesburg level crossing accident


In the Johannesburg level crossing collision of April 2005, a bus and a freight train collided north of the city of Johannesburg, South Africa killing at least nine people and injuring 60 others.

The cause of the collision near Johannesburg was still being investigated, but it appears that the bus driver did not check to see if there was a train coming before trying to cross the tracks.
