27th Sep. 2011 Shanghai Subway crashed at 14:51, a seriously injuried lady on the floor of train.
A Shanghai subway train rammed into the back of another locomotive after a signaling fault, injuring 260 people and adding to concerns that the pace of China’s rail expansion may undermine safety.
The crash happened while controllers were running operations using a manual system following an equipment failure, Shanghai Shentong Metro Group Co. said in a statement. Three of the injured are in a critical condition, state-run China Central Television said, citing the subway operator. The accident on line 10, which opened last year, occurred between Yuyuan station, in the city’s historic district, and Lao Ximen at about 2:51 p.m.
China has slashed rail construction since 40 people were killed in a high-speed crash in July that prompted criticism that authorities were building too fast. The subway and maglev- train network in Shanghai expanded more than sevenfold in eight years to 453 kilometers (281 miles) to keep pace with a growing population and demand during last year’s World Expo.
