At least 28 people have been killed after a construction crane fell on top of a moving train carriage at around 09:00 local time (02:00 GMT)

According to official records, the train, which was carrying at least 195 people, had been travelling from Bangkok to a province in northeastern Thailand

The disaster left at least 80 people injured, the youngest just one year old

One survivor, a train staff member, recalled how he and the other passengers were thrown into the air after the crane fell on the vehicle

The governor of the State Railway of Thailand has been ordered to “thoroughly and comprehensively” investigate the cause of the accident

Deadly construction accidents are not uncommon in Thailand, due in part to poor enforcement of standards and regulations
