2015 Gujranwala derailment
The 2015 Gujranwala derailment occurred on 2 July 2015 when a military-special train carrying Pakistan Army unit was derailed at Gujranwala due to a bridge collapsing under it. Nineteen people were killed and over 100 were injured.
==Accident==
On 2 July 2015 at 1200 hours, a Pakistan Army mixed train was derailed near the Chanawan Bridge on the Upper Lower Chanawan Canal near Jamkey Chattha, Gujranwala. The train comprised six passenger carriages and 21 wagons. It was travelling from to Pano Akil. Four of the carriages were derailed.〔 The train was carrying about 300 people,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Railways minister, military suspects sabotage : Troop train plunges into canal; 19 killed )〕 soldiers of the Pakistan Army Corps of Engineers and their families. One of the derailed carriages ended up in the canal. Authorities took steps to drain the canal in order to assist the rescue operation. At least nineteen people were killed and over 100 were injured. The injured were taken to the Combined Military Hospital in Gujranwara.〔 A Pakistan Railways train had crossed the bridge safely an hour before the accident.〔
Railways Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique stated that the possibility that the cause was a terrorist attack could not be ruled out. A regional police officer stated that the bridge was in poor condition and that no explosive materials had been found at the accident site.〔 Rafique suggested other forms of sabotage may have been used. Bridges in Pakistan are checked four times a year. Conflicting information was given about the state of the bridge, with Rafique stating that it passed an inspection in January 2015 and was found to be "faultless". It was also reported that the bridge was reported to be in an "extremely dangerous" condition.〔
It was subsequently reported that the locomotive hauling the train had derailed some before the bridge, which collapsed as a result of the derailed train attempting to cross it. The condition of the track was reported as the cause of the derailment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gujranwala train accident: Railway officials tried to remove evidence )〕
