Hospitals in and around Soweto were put under extreme pressure after 644 passengers were injured when two trains crashed in Meadowlands late yesterday afternoon.
Netcare 911 spokesperson Jeff Wicks says two of the patients were seriously injured.
Fifteen ambulances were used to rush patients to the Chris Hani Baragwanath, Helen Joseph and various private hospitals.
A passenger train apparently hit a stationary train head-on between Mzimhlophe and Phomolong stations, leaving hundreds of passengers scattered on and along the track, many with broken limbs.
