Two trains have collided inside a tunnel in the southwestern English city of Salisbury, with multiple fire trucks and ambulances working at the scene.
The incident reportedly happened after one train derailed and “knocked out all of the signalling in the area” after hitting an object on its approach to Salisbury station. Another train then collided with it.
