Rescue teams carry on the operation to move the wreckage of the exploded train in Dehnow 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/Hasan Sarbakhshian)
