BANGKOK, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- A construction crane used for railway work plummeted at a high-speed rail project site in Sikhio District, Thailand's Nakhon Ratchasima Province, on Wednesday morning, slamming into a passing train, Thai media reported.

The impact sparked a fire in the train carriages and led to the train derailing. Initial reports said at least 10 people were killed and multiple others were injured in the incident.
