Re: 7 dead and 50 injured as Croydon tram overturns
Quote:
The tram that derailed in Croydon killing seven people was travelling at three and a half times the speed limit, investigators have said.
The Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) said the tram, which was carrying about 60 people, was travelling at 43.5mph in a 12mph zone.
In its interim report, it said there was no evidence of any track defects, or obstructions on the track.
