NEW DELHI -- Train services have resumed along a stretch of Indian track where a horrific crash on Friday evening claimed at least 275 lives, authorities said on Monday, as officials probed the cause of the disaster.
Preliminary findings suggested that a "signaling issue" might have been behind the tragedy in the eastern state of Odisha, which also left nearly 1,200 people injured. The accident has thrown a spotlight on the safety of the world's fourth-largest railway system in a country now estimated to be the most populous, as the government aims to upgrade infrastructure.
