Two Years After Greece's Worst Train Crash: Demands for Responsibility and Safety Changes.

A report on a train crash in Greece found that human error, old train tracks, and other problems caused the crash. The crash killed 57 people two years ago and made people very angry.

The crash happened when a worker made a mistake and sent a passenger train onto the same track as a freight train. The trains crashed head-on and killed everyone on board.

The report also said that workers were not trained well enough and there were not enough workers. It said the train system was in bad shape and didn't have enough safety features.

The report said that these problems were made worse because the government didn't spend enough money on the train system. The government said it would fix these problems but denied trying to hide anything about the crash.

Many people in Greece are still upset about the crash and plan to protest. They will have a big strike that will stop many businesses and services from working.
