The Gaisal train disaster occurred on 2 August 1999,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://hindu.com/2001/04/04/stories/0204000q.htm )〕 when two trains carrying 2,500 people collided at the remote station of Gaisal, 310 miles from the city of Gauhati in Assam. The crash was at such high speeds that the trains actually exploded upon impact killing at least 290 people.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/WestBengal/Six-railwaymen-punished-for-Gaisal-train-mishap/Article1-232244.aspx )〕 ==Collision== The crash occurred at about 1.30am on 2 August, when the Avadh Assam Express from New Delhi was stationary at the station. The Brahmaputra Mail from Dibrugarh, packed with soldiers and security police heading for the border regions at very high speed, through a signalling error, was transferred onto the same track as the express train. Nobody noticed the error on either train, or in the signals & station master's office, until the Brahmaputra Mail train crashed headlong into the front of the Avadh Assam Express. The engine of the Avadh Assam was thrown high in the air, and passengers from both trains were blown into neighbouring buildings and fields by the force of the explosion.
