N2  - Among 69 persons involved in a train crash, 53 were injured. Twenty-two persons were admitted to hospital. No-one was killed. There was a significantly increased risk of getting hurt when facing forward in the moving train. The mechanism of injury for the majority was being thrown forward and thereby hitting parts of the seats in front. The iron frames of the seats became exposed as some parts of the seats were only loosely attached. Arrangements to reduce injuries in train crashes could be an improved maintenance of the seats and their frames and the use of safety belts.<p /> <p>Language: da</p>
