Anowar Hossain, superintendent of Dhaka Railway Police, stated, “An early report said that the goods train crashed into the Egaro Sindhur from behind, striking two of the carriages.”
A passenger train and a goods train collided in Bhairab, around 80 kilometres (50 miles) from the capital Dhaka, causing the tragedy.
As rescue efforts continue, the number of fatalities could rise, according to local police spokesman Sirajul Islam.
Two passenger carriages were derailed in the collision in the eastern city of Bhairab when a goods train collided with a passenger train going in the other direction, according to officials.
Around 60 kilometres (38 miles) northeast of the capital Dhaka sits the town of Bhairab. “We have recovered 15 bodies, many are injured,” government administrator Sadiqur Rahman has reportedly been quoted by various news organisations.
Rescuers reported they could still see victims crushed and trapped under upturned carriages. “The death toll will rise,” Rahman declared.
He said that there were at least 100 injuries.
According to Rahman, the accident happened at approximately 4:00 pm (1000 GMT) when two trains reached the same track.
In Bangladesh, train accidents are frequent and frequently result from incompetent signalling, carelessness, outdated rails, or other dilapidated infrastructure.
