Indian runaway train takes 1,000 passengers on engineless journey

Twenty two carriages roll out of control for seven miles in Odisha state before being stopped by rocks placed on track...

This reminds me very much of the runaway that Rovos Rail had several years ago - even the number of coaches (22) matches the length of Rovos trains in those days. Fortunately in this Indian incident there were no deaths, unlike the Rovos runaway.
