I cannot believe this - but this beautiful town Viarreggio has suffered a huge catastrophe within the last 24 hours - a train with several cars transporting liquid propane crashed off the tracks - the last few cars - they exploded as they spilled the gas - it blew several buildings - somewhere around 15 people burned to death including children - around 50 seriously injured - they are still searching buildings -- please pray for mercy and grace - and if possible one more time, donate! Ihave a link to Corriere della Sera to an article on my blogsite. They are located near Lucca and Pisa - we have been there several times and the people are warm friendly folks!

OMG...this is awful! It never seems tp stop, does it! Thank you so much for keeping us updated with all this. I will definitely keep these people in my prayers and I'm sure others will as well.

I heard this on the news last night. Its amazing they managed to slip it in between all of the Michael Jackson coverage.

The only reason I found it was through some blog subscriptions and then a horrendous video montage on Euronews - we have DISH and it shows on channel 784 for us - they also have a website so it is worth checking it out for news we don't always get full picture of (European news that is).
