CRH train accident in Wenzhou China’s railway ministry and high-speed rail system have both come under fierce criticism after a fatal collision between two bullet trains D301 and D 3115 on July 23,2011, in Wenzhou ,Zhejiang Province. 40 people died in this horrible accident and more than 200 people get injured. According to the ministry spokesman, the accident was caused by a lightning strike which leaded to the equipment failure. Four of the D301’s carriages fell off the bridge, while two of the D3115’s carriages were derailed but not fell off. The wreckage of the two trains was removed from the tracks and rail operations reopened by 7 p.m. on the next day. After people who live in Wenzhou knew about the accident, they flooded to hospital to donate their blood, hoping to help the victims. Another five malfunctions happened in the next four days along the Beijing-Shanghai line, raising doubts about the safety of the trains, Beijing Youth Daily reported. The ministry spokesman seemed to be dishonest about the whole thing. He said: ‘It’s a miracle. I believe it anyhow no matter you believe it or not.’ People are angry about these words and the spokesman’s attitude. More and more people show their distrust in railway ministry and the high-speed rail system. This accident reflected the technological and managerial disadvantages of CRH trains. People don’t expected to see tragedy again. On September 15, the railway ministry spokesman said that they had already gave the lists which contains of all the victims' names and the cause of this horrible accident to the government.
