Ministry publishes commission report on Tempe rail disaster
Greece’s Transport Ministry published on Thursday a report prepared by a special investigative commission appointed by the government to investigate the conditions that led to the February 28 deadly train collision in northern Greece.
The three-member expert panel also stresses the need to modernize the railway, identifying chronic problems, and the need for radical changes in matters of personnel transfers and training.
The panel’s findings are independent from the official ongoing judicial investigation into the train crash.
Forty-seven people died in the disaster, which left dozens injured.
