Lisbon Mourns Victims Of Funicular Crash, Did A Loose Cable Lead To Portugal's Biggest Tragedy? | 4K

Recovery efforts in the crash of a funicular in Lisbon that killed 16 people, could offer insight into potential causes of the accident, which Portugal’s prime minister has called “one of the greatest human tragedies in our recent history.” A video of the recovery of the mangled cars showed workers extracting an underground cable connecting the funicular’s two carriages. It appeared shredded and torn apart. The Portuguese authorities have not yet commented on the cause of the accident. One of the agencies involved in the investigation said it would issue a statement on its first findings. But experts and firefighters quoted by local news media have advanced theories that a cable coming loose may have played a role in the crash. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
