Human error behind Lampung train crash

BANDUNG: A train accident in Bandarlampung on Thursday night that
killed six people was caused by human error, a spokesman for
state train operator PT KAI said on Friday.

Noor Hamidi said a PT KAI employee at the Rejosari station
should have prevented the Fajar Utama Express passenger train
from departing the station. A few moments after it was allowed to
depart, the passenger train slammed into a freight train carrying
coal, leaving at least six people dead and dozens of others
injured. -- JP
