But wait, the REALLY funny part is:

 

LATHEN, Germany (AP) -- A high-tech train traveling at 200 kph (125 mph) crashed in northwestern Germany on Friday, killing at least 25 people in the first fatal wreck involving the magnetic levitation system.

 

The train, which runs primarily as a demonstration by its manufacturer, was carrying at least 29 people when it struck a maintenance vehicle carrying two workers on the elevated track. Mangled wreckage hung from the track, with seats and other debris strewn below.
