village near Nishabour some 700 kms ( 435 miles) east of Tehran,
Wednesday Feb. 18, 2004. Runaway train cars carrying fuel, fertilizer
and industrial chemicals derailed and exploded in northeastern
Iran on Wednesday, killing more than 200 people, injuring hundreds
more and devastating five nearby villages, the government news
agency said. Most of the known dead were fire and rescue workers,
who died in the blast hours after the train cars derailed and
caught fire. (AP Photo/Kamran Jebreili)
