Distance
What does K290+940 metres mean? Simply south (talk) 18:23, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Diction
The article states that there were "71 casualties and 416 injuries." Correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't there be 487 casualties? The American Heritage Dictionary defines a casulaty as "One injured or killed in an accident." Saying that injuries are separate from casualties is wrong. I'm not going to act without consent, but I would appreciate it if someone would at least change the wording so that it is clear that 71 died and 416 are injured.

 * You are correct, and it has been changed already to "fatalities". In the future don't be afraid to be bold and fix something that seems wrong as long as you're doing it in good faith. --  At am a chat 22:55, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It was me who changed the wording from "deaths" to "casualties". Seems like I got it wrong. Thanks! :) williampoetra (talk) 01:39, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * *Sirens* This is the grammar police. Step out of the car. The previous statement should read, It was I who changed [...] Thank you for listening. (but you still have to pay $50, and we'll see you in court Thursday) flaminglawyerc 03:51, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

French Tourists
I remember from the wikinews article that there were four French Nationals (most likely tourists) that were among the injured. I think this information is important enough to include. Here is the original wikinews article, although I don't know if their names and ages are important to necessarily include in this article. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Two_trains_collide_in_China_killing_dozens_and_injuring_hundreds —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.97.195.3 (talk) 14:25, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
