Man Dies after Run over by Puyuma Express Train
Posted on 2021-04-10 11:36:04
A man was found dead after being run over by an express train on a railroad
crossing in Taichung on Friday.

The Taichung City government's Fire Bureau said it received a report of an
accident at the Chenggong East Road crossing in Wuri District, involving the
train.

The accident occurred at 2:43 p.m., and railway police are investigating the
man's identity and why he was on the track when the train came, the bureau
said, but it did not offer any other details.

Meanwhile, the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA), which operates the
tilting train, said it was the No. 271 Puyuma that hit the man on the
crossing between the Chenggong and Xinwuri stations.

Citing the train's driver, the TRA said the man was seen squatting on the
southbound track with his back facing the train.

The TRA said the train originated in Hualien County in eastern Taiwan and was
headed to Changhua County via Taipei.
