     7Early in the morning of Sept. 29, received the leadership telephone, said the train turned over in the territory of Liuzhou, the specific situation is unknown. We quickly find, finally confirmed that all channels from, do have a train derailed near Liucheng County Zhai long, 4 people have been killed, dozens injured.

    This major, I and my colleague Cao Weijun immediately drove to Liucheng, also call my classmate in Liucheng Liang Xiaojun, let this photographic fancier take equipment, drive us to the scene. Along the way, I think, in accordance with the conventional emergencies to deal with, is not what skills at all, the key is to quickly.

    Telephone ringing interrupted my thoughts, leading to say, a Fujian radio interview and I want to do connection. To tell you the truth, I have never made the connection, but do not eat pork also seen pigs run, we often see the CCTV news, the host often when, playing a breaking news would say: "now we connect the front of the press, Xiaoya Hello, hello... Hello... Oh, the signal is not very good, please do not long ago called PHS, hey......"

    To connect a line, I will copy it, nervous, speak stuck all does not matter, I can blame the signal is not good, the place is far away from the city.

    Classmate Liang Xiaojun early in Liucheng at the entrance to wait, we'll take his car, moving rapidly to the moving the scene of the accident, really is "fast", Liang Xiaojun put a ramshackle Wuling minivan driving fast cars, as well as the tank water boiling, sweltering with the heat.

    Along the way, we have a police car roared past, we follow the police car tracks, and constantly call path, finally reached the village of Liucheng County, the accident occurred long xiang. Distance of train derailment site and 7 kilometers of road, but the road has been the police guard, not let pass. I dig certificates, to stop the police said in an interview with reporters, haven't waited he inspection certificates, Liang Xiaojun step on the foot throttle, the car has entered the alley, the police see the potential without stop, probably saw Liang Xiaojun body photography.

    OK to 4 km, a large number of vehicles on the roadside park, and police blocked road. Have a look not far distance, we get off to walk forward. Along the way a lot of nearby villagers gathering in crowds and groups also went to the location in the walk, they all want to have a look to the future site, as gossip.

    Arrived at the scene of the accident finally, is already at nine in the morning. The locomotive side on the side of the road, few cars show "" the words over the rails, wounded and unwounded passengers have been transferred, field 50 meters has been the railway police cordoned off, a large number of reporters can not enter, only far photos. I saw many familiar faces, greet each other, they get the news. The accident happened at about four thirty in the morning, "Liuzhou Evening News" Li Shuhou they arrive at 6, have to admire their rapidly. Liuzhou Public Security Bureau girder section chief saw me and said: "Wow, how where all can see you!" It makes me ashamed, after all, I was the scene in the nearly 5 hours after the incident, the reaction is not timely!

    Cut the crap, get first-hand information, interview Nanning railway bureau Party Committee Propaganda Department Minister Chen Ming, general situation is this: the 29 day at four thirty in the morning, by the Hubei Xiangfan to the 1473 train derailment occurred in Guangdong Zhanjiang County in Liucheng, Guangxi, Liuzhou City, the first locomotive and second carriages, subversion, third, section fourth train derailment; killed 4 people, injured 11 people, 23 people were slightly injured; the cause of the accident is the continuous rainfall caused landslides, rock block cover tracks, the driver brakes in time cause.

    No computer, no wireless card, not to mention the 3G, no way, had 10 points, slightly finishing, oral reports to the rear, allowing the rear organization of press. My report is completed, Fujian station on the phone to request on the spot, line, let me introduce the scene, you can dictate the manuscript, connection is easily. The phone I hear the host in the simple broadcast news of the incident, and said: Here we connect is the scene of the China News Agency reporter Meng Mingming, Ming Ming......

    "Even L hello......" In accordance with the prior agreement, I also respond to host. After that, I tried to use pure Liuzhou Mandarin reported everything I found. Fortunately, no mobile phone signal is strong, "Hey, the signal is not good, we inserted an advertisement" this kind of phenomenon, end of line.

      Unexpectedly, this line is just the beginning, then, perhaps my manuscript has been posted on the web, domestic media began to get my mobile phone number from various channels, have to do live connection reports. Beijing TV station, Shanghai Xinmin Evening News, twenty-first Century economic report seven or eight media, specifically I don't remember clearly, anyway I am in a repeating the same thing, doing the same report, and the media will ask: what new progress?

      When I do connection, railway police also further drive away reporter, those who see it take long lens camera were all cleared, Liang Xiaojun a "armed", natural in the removal of columns, iron police might now come out, a newspaper reporter almost got iron alarm a remember the old.

    Some reporters from across the hillside, with a telephoto shooting, but after the hill has been designated as restricted areas. More reporters outside wait-and-see, we take gossip way of discussing how they can mix scene, one way is to borrow a railway worker vest in the mix, another way is posing as rescue workers, but these two methods was quickly denied. There is one of the most fun, most in a flagrant way, several people together with the implementation of the method -- posing as the leading to inspect, a man in the way, pointing to "leadership" under the foot in place, one bag followed behind the "leadership", and then escort. In this way, no one stopped.

      Just then, leading it to the Guangxi District, President Ma Biao led a large group of men came to the scene, reporters from all sides to go into action without delay, from the inside, it was like a group of discrete field bees suddenly saw the queen and quickly gather. The police are now also not idle, desperately trying to push sang a reporter, and speak to scold: only two carry camera journalists to enter. Fortunately, my legs neatly, look into the chairman's suite, also luckily my camera is very small, can be put in a small backpack, do not become visible, hidden in a large force, into the field.

      Entered the scene, I would leave the army, to the damaged carriage, and landslides at a close shot. Two iron police see me to behave strangely, immediately up questioning, also twisted my arm: "what are you doing?" Grandma, I walk away from them, to be in the right and self-confident, drink: "I and Chairman Ma!" It worked, two police immediately. It seems that I really have some leading his style, really dizzy. Whether he, anyway, now I can move freely in the scene, looking for the various angle shot.

      From the outside, really can not see, one of the cars is squeezed in the middle has serious deformation, passenger car fittings sundries and scattered on the railway, those of odd shape metal object terrorist stretching, can imagine the passenger was in it is a what kind of scene.

      In the back of the derailed carriages, a large railway and road slope collapse, a large number of workers are cleaning up the railway on the rocks. I wonder, if you know the rain falling in the continuous strong, is easy to cause landslide, why not strengthen patrol? The system is how to set?

      For the first time issued before the photo, colleagues small Cao in the periphery after the shooting has been back to the town of press. At noon, I take pictures, find small army in the periphery, have a look there is no new advances, we retreat. On the way back to Liucheng, Xiao Cao has to go back Liuzhou, and get the latest casualties report from the Bureau of health: 4 Dead 71 injured.

      Back in Liucheng, I used the latest data issued by the eight pictures, did not think of, this data has numerous asked. The first is not recognized 71 injury data of Ministry of railways, their argument is injured more than 50, the Xinhua news agency and other media also quoted railway sector data. After that, Liuzhou officials also inquiries, leading to very angry, our data come from? I believe Cao Delai's data will be false. That evening, the official calls that news articles have to the mailbox, casualty figures were also returned to the first 4 people dead, 11 people injured, 23 people were slightly injured.

      The wounded soldier is? This figure can look so strange? 34? More than 50? Or 71?

      17 in the evening, I and small army to kill back to the scene to have a look, the repair line after the opening of the situation, because a new report says, the Ministry of Railways will strive to open before 18. Unfortunately, we and the copy path in, but lost, after countless wrong, reversing, we arrived at the scene again, it was eighteen thirty.

      The site is still in the construction repair, on-site mechanical roar, 6, 7 excavators digging cave out above the mud, remove hidden trouble, while the other two excavators with mechanical arm they are strong, destroying the derailed carriages, open, flat. I asked the Minister Chen, what time line, "she said quickly". I had to wait, approaching 19, not hungry, just know little army site of Liucheng county government responsible for logistics, got two lunch, we eat like wolves and tigers.

      The minister to take a call, come back to announce, the opening line at eighteen five. Reporters at the scene all don't know what happened, the eyes are asking: why not see the train coming. The minister obviously know our question, and then explained: line opened, can pass the train, but when a train station scheduling needs, what time she did not know.

      We ate lunch, spirit a bit, but it's already late, would not wait for the train. Said that CCTV reporter also went to the scene, but also to live.

      The strong, I and small army left the scene, to walk 3 km outside parking.


Postscript:

      The train derailment accident in Liucheng, we then checked the number of injured, the Liuzhou Municipal Health Bureau from the number of the wounded each hospital statistics, it is 71 people.

      Today, Liuzhou's official "Liuzhou Evening News" also reported on the number, the title of the article is: "more than 70 patients received treatment of Liuzhou".

      While in the "members of the public to donate blood to save the wounded" in one article wrote: more than 9 point yesterday morning, a lot of people receiving such a message: "the accident killed 4 people, injured more than 70 people, now Liuzhou blood type A, type O blood in an emergency, appeals to the public for help, the blood donation to rescue the wounded."

      As the accident of the parties, it has no exact casualties, this can let a person have a guess!
