Train and Bus Crash Kills 18 in Argentina

This is a really sad situation. A train slammed into a bus at a rural Argentine rail crossing early Sunday, killing 18 people and leaving at least 47 others injured. The passenger bus was traveling from the Argentine capital to the South Atlantic beach resort of Mar del Plata when the accident happened near Dolores, some 125 miles south of Buenos Aires. Police said 18 people died and at least 47 had multiple injuries and ambulances rushed the victims to area hospitals as fast as they could. I wonder if the bus just didn't see the train or tried to beat it. That kills more people.
