(ANSA-AFP) - ATHENS, MAR 3 - Greek police raided a train
station Friday as part of their probe into the rail collision
that killed at least 57 people, as the nation braced for new
strikes and protests over the disaster. Some families were still
desperate to locate loved ones who were on the train and some
demonstrations have turned violent as public anger builds over
the role government mismanagement played in Greece's worst-ever
rail accident. A judicial source told AFP that files were among
items seized by police on Friday during a raid on the Larissa
train station in central Greece, where the fiery crash happened
on Tuesday. The passenger train -- carrying many students
returning from a holiday weekend -- ran for several kilometres
on the same track as an incoming freight train, reportedly after
the station master in Larissa failed to reroute one of the
trains. (ANSA-AFP).
