| The crash resulted in a massive blaze. |
huge explosion ripped through a commuter train with 200 passengers after it collided with a fuel tanker at an "unmanned" railway crossing near a petrol station in Kepayan, Kota Kinabalu. At least nine people were seriously injured.
Most passengers scrambled out from the rear driver's compartments as they fled the inferno that spread almost immediately following the impact between the four carriages and the Shell tanker.
But 34 of the 200 passengers could not be traced though police have ascertained, as of 7.45pm, that no one else was inside the wrecked carriages.
However, a detailed search is being carried by police, firemen and Sabah Railway staff.
