Are you sure, because this evening I was watching the Japanese TV news and it said 1 female Japanese was already confirmed dead.

You are right Educator, I am right but about WRONG accident. Kind of silly for these tv guys to go on about another accident back in 2010, so that got me confused, and yes it seems like a miracle that nobody died in this accident. Those trees seem to have stopped that train from falling even further, I am happy you watch and understand J tv news, too many folk on here do not.

That accident looks quite dramatic, I think they were lucky that nobody was killed. Would have been easy with the train car hanging vertically from a cliff like this.

Japanese tourists visiting other countries need to realize trains in many countries are not like Shinkansens in Japan.

I don't think they are rich people. Just tourists who depend on train, not limo service.
