Greek stationmaster suspended for alleged attempt to cause passenger train collision in Athens.
A Greek stationmaster has been suspended for allegedly ordering two passenger trains onto a collision course in Athens' suburban railway. The potential accident was averted by another stationmaster and the train drivers, who stopped one train before it entered the single track. This incident follows a disastrous train crash in February 2023 that killed 57 people, prompting calls for improved safety measures and staff training from the railway company Hellenic Train.
