Several people have been severely injured in a head-on collision between two commuter trains in Austria.
Emergency fire and ambulance crews had to cut people out of the wreckage after the crash, which happened during rush hour in the capital, Vienna.
An emergency spokeswoman said five people were seriously hurt. Another 20 were reported to be lightly injured.
The train cabs were crumpled. One train driver was among those badly injured, the Austria Press Agency said.
It took almost two hours to evacuate both trains, which had been travelling along the same track in the Penzing district of western Vienna, the AFP news agency reported.
Emergency services spokeswoman Claudia Gigler said it "remains unclear at the moment" why both trains were on the same track.
"Of course we will investigate the causes for the collision but at the moment our priority is with the passengers," Austrian Railways spokeswoman Sarah Nettel told AFP.
