Artyom Kol tells the chronology of events and provides eyewitness accounts of the collision of two trains that occurred on the night of April 9, 2017.

That night, the street lighting generators of the Ministry of Emergency Situations were the main silence breakers on the 9th kilometer of the Belarusian railway, on which, according to Russian Railways, the Moscow-Brest incident occurred at 22:40.

“At 10:03 we drove off, stopped about 19 minutes later and stood on the Kuntsevo-Fili bridge for a long time, about 15-20 minutes. Because the red light was always on there. After a while we felt a strong blow. The lights went out and smoke started "says a passenger on the Moscow-Brest train named Elena.

"A mechanic came and started pulling the stop valve. The stop valve didn't work. Then the driver came and told everyone to get into the first car. They started kicking people out. The driver immediately prepared for a collision, because he knew that there was still a train standing on the tracks behind “recalls an electric train passenger named Ekaterina.

At this moment the collision occurred. Investigators still call the human factor the main cause of the incident.

On one side of the railway there is night club, where on Saturdays - a large number of people, and on the other side there are multi-storey residential buildings.

This is the case when they say: “The people’s path will not be overgrown.” Here you can clearly see the path that leads through the garages to the railway track, through which people walk local residents.
