HAGUE: Dutch emergency services say one person has died and some 30 passengers have been injured, many of them seriously, when a train partially derailed in the early hours of Tuesday, sending at least one carriage into a field next to the tracks.
Television images showed one of the people using makeshift bridges to cross a canal running alongside the rails to reach the stricken train in the darkness.
The cause of the accident that happened around 3:25 a.m. (0125 GMT) in the town of Voorschoten, near The Hague, was not immediately clear.
