Three children, woman killed in France train-car crash 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Agence France-PresseA woman and three children were killed Monday when a train smashed into their car at a level crossing in eastern France. The eldest child killed, aged around 10, was the driver’s daughter while the other two were “very young”, mayor Philippe Maussire said. The barrier “comes down automatically when a train is approaching”, head of rail infrastructure management unit SNCF Reseau Patrick Jeantet said. Sixteen people died at level crossings in France last year, down from 42 in 2017.
