FRANCE-RAIL-ACCIDENT

French Junior Minister for Transports and Maritime Economy Frederic Cuvillier (R) speaks with the person in charge of the emergency wing, professor Jacques Levraut (L), at the hospital of Nice, southern France, after a train derailed near Digne-les-Bains in the French Alps on February 8, 2014. Two women were killed when a massive falling boulder hit a passing train in the French Alps on Saturday, leaving one of its carriages dangling precariously off a steep, snow-covered embankment. Eight people were injured in the accident which took place as the train travelled from the coastal city of Nice to the popular tourist town of Digne-les-Bains along a narrow, winding, and sometimes breathtakingly steep track.
