On Wednesday in Buenos Aires, Argentina a crowded train knocked to the end of the line in Buenos Aires' station, which claimed the lifes of 49 people and hurted hundreds of people.As this incident in Argentina is said to be the most awful train accident in decades.

Nestor Rodriguez a Federal Police Commissioner has said that the dead enclose to 48 adults and in that theres one child.

This makes an awful train accident since Feb. 1, 1970, as the train collided into one another at full speed in Buenos Aires, claiming the lifes of 200 people. 

At least 550 people were injured, and emergency workers were slowly extracting dozens of people who were trapped inside the first car, said Alberto Crescenti, the city's emergency medical director. Rescuers carved open the roof and set up a pulley system to ease them out one by one.

The commuter train came in too fast and hit the barrier at the end of the platform at about 16 mph (26 kph), smashing the front of the engine and crunching the leading cars behind it; one car penetrated nearly 20 feet (six meters) into the next, Argentina's transportation secretary, J.P. Schiavi told reporters at the station.

The conductors' union chief, Omar Maturano, told Radio 10 that the train might have come in as fast as 18 mph (30 kph)Most damaged was the first car, where passengers make space for bicycles. Survivors told the TeleNoticias channel that many people were injured in a jumble of metal and glass.

Passengers said windows exploded as the tops of train cars separated from their floors. The trains are usually packed with people standing between the seats, and many were thrown into each other and to the floor by the force of the hard stop.

Many people suffered bruises, and many with lesser injuries were waiting for attention on the Once station's platforms as helicopters and more than a dozen ambulances took the most seriously injured to nearby hospitals.

There have been five serious train accidents in Argentina since Dec. 2010; the most deadly of these happened last Sept. 13, when a bus driver crossed the tracks in front of an oncoming train, killing 11.

"This machine left the shop yesterday and the brakes worked well. From what we know, it braked without problems at previous stations. At this point I don't want to speculate about the causes,'' Ruben Sobrero, train workers' union chief on the Sarmiento line, told Radio La Red.

Ruben Sobrero said that the engine driver has been taken to the hospital for treatment and still union hasn't been able to speak with him.
