Rescue workers ended their search for the dead and prosecutors opened their
investigation early Sunday.
The trains, carrying about 350 people in total, were travelling toward each
other on the same track when they collided head-on in the small town of
Szczekociny in southern Poland.
One train was travelling from the eastern city of Przemysl to Warsaw, while
the other – on the wrong track – was heading south from Warsaw to Krakow.
Some maintenance work was being done on the tracks in Szczekociny before the
accident happened, official said.
Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski was also planning to visit the site on
Sunday, his office said.
