The number of children who have died in an accident involving a train and a minibus this morning in Blackheath has risen to nine.

Eight children died on the scene and the ninth boy died in hospital.

The Metrorail and the Rail Safety Regulator are busy investigating the accident and the investigation so far indicates that the driver tried to cross the railway track while the safety boom was down.

The other children and the bus driver are in hospital and in a critical condition.
