Published on 14/08/2026 | 21:33

A second train derailed on Friday in eastern England, near Wickford, Essex, less than 24 hours after the first accident near Lewes, Sussex. No injuries were reported in this latest incident, but rail traffic was severely disrupted. On Thursday, the first derailment left two people seriously injured and several others with minor injuries among the approximately 150 passengers. The causes of the accidents are under investigation, as the high temperatures recorded in the UK may have affected the railway tracks.
