Attention, there is a part written in Spanish at minute 10:09, we apologize, the English translation is: Subsequently, the southern line that turned out to be damaged was improved and updated to be able to circulate at speeds of 100 km/h (62 mph). SORRY!
Thanks for making this video.On that day I missed this on Dehiwala Railway station. There are few wrong information on this video.Actual thing is traind driver didn't got any information about increasing sea water level.Train stopped becouse railway signal light dosent work becouse before few minutes tsunami hits hikkaduwa railway station.Please ignore grammatically error in my comment 😂
Still remember the day. Even as far away as in the state of Bengal in India, we felt the effect. Though we did not experience the tremors, the water in the ponds in our lane suddenly started swirling around. It was only a few hours later did we first get the first news of the true extent of the disaster.
It was a nightmare and unforgettable tragedy for our nation. Many numbers of innocent people was died in a second. Anyway thank you for making such a creative video.. 🙏
Thank you, that is the first time I found out that the train was hit head on. A very educational upload for me. I also had no idea that so many lives were lost in Sri Lanka as the main focus has usually been on Japan. Thinking of all the lost ones and the ones suffering from their loss xx
I remember that day and it was very sad for people who lost their family members and friends who were lost in tsunami and the earthquake..😢 my thoughts and prayers for those who lost who were killed and injured by the earthquake and tsunami in 2004😢
My deepest condolences to everyone involved. It's the first time I heard about the train and so many lost there. I know there was so many who were lost, but not the details of this area. The stories that I heard was for the areas of the eastern parts of the Indian Ocean.
I remember this like yesterday i was about to hop on to this train but all of the sudden we diidnt go bc the train was crowded so after the train left waves started to pull up to the station.
Thanks for this information. A lot of us weren’t aware of this massive loss of lives. Please make another video on the 2023 Odisha train accident in India. The collision is still not clear and who’s mistake was it 😢
This video is so wrong.i am form this train accident area.this 3d video is damage real story. 1.train is strat time late in last station 2.first tsunami wave is came very slowly and not very high , everyone has to time to run. 3.but they don't think to much 4.after 15min later 2 nd wave came and everything is gone
Work my Daughter ~Tsuami.!! Horrific News photo's. Never Seen Before. Only News Buitins At the Time! Loss of Life Horrific !! Sadly Upsetting! Londoner.
It sounds that the incident was happened in 1904 but not in 2004. Has there no any one in the train including the passengers a mobile phone to send the incoming Tsunami alert and halt the train?
Sri Lanka didn't have dedicated tsunami warning system until the 2004 Tsunami disaster. They did have seismic monitor system but never expected to have tsunami reached their shore.
Sri lankans did'nt have experience in tsunami waves before the year 2004. Other thing is earthquake was happen nearly thousands of kilometers away (Sumatra ) from SriLanka .
Those days srilanka never heard or witness something called Tsunami..even I didn’t believe it when news comes the waves came half a kilometer in to the land!!! 30feet high waves can you imagine the force😭
