Shock is very much after an accident at an unguarded railway crossing at Vorden: ‘A dull blow, thought of a thunderstorm’

It’s a surreal scene. Looking in the direction of Vorden, the front of a van is visible to the right of the track. A little further on is the rear of the vehicle on the left. And a lot further – a few hundred meters – is the derailed train that was en route from Winterswijk to Zutphen.
