Ive heard some stuff about germany...

Here in Greece though, a year ago 57 people (~mainly students returning to their university city) died in a train collision with another train...

There are almost no safety measures in trains here.. On the disaster above, it was 2 trains running at high speed on the same track against each other for like 10minutes.. The government kinda tried and still tries to cover it up. It is said the other train carried illegal oil for fire or something (that's why the collision caused a huge explosion). About a year later courts are being held and the government tries to do almost everything on their power to blame it to someone else or just bury the case...

(Trains in Greece ~no longer belong to public sector btw.)

2nd edit: It is very touching though that this made people this year and a year before go out and protest on the streets. Not a small protest, but huuuge protests with enormous attendance. This year even more went (including me).
