India-Pakistan train fire explosion kills 60 64, injures 50
About 60 passengers are feared to have burned to death after suspected blasts aboard a train bound from India to Pakistan, officials said on Monday. "It appears to be a case of sabotage," B.N. Mathur, a top railway official, told reporters. "We have found two suitcases, there were IEDs in them," he said referring to improvised explosive devices. About 50 passengers were also reported wounded.
The incident comes days before Pakistani Foreign Minister Khursheed Mehmood Kasuri is due in New Delhi for talks with Indian leaders.
Funny number, though not funny ha-ha. Usually there are two to three wounded for every killed. I'd expect to see somewhere between 120 and 180 wounded in this case.
The coaches of the Samjhauta Express train, which connects New Delhi to the northern Pakistani city of Lahore, erupted in fire near Panipat town, about 80 km (50 miles) north of the Indian capital, around midnight on Sunday (1830 GMT).

The incident comes days before Pakistani Foreign Minister Khursheed Mehmood Kasuri is due in New Delhi for talks with Indian leaders to push forward a slow-moving peace process between the old rivals.
A bit more:
PANIPAT: The death toll in fire on the Samjhota express, which reportedly erupted after blasts in the train in the northern Indian state of Haryana, has increased to 64, the reports said. Five unexploded bombs have also been recovered from the train. Some people with burns have been pulled from the carriages but firemen are still fighting the blaze. According to Indian media reports it might be the incident of terrorism as the bombs were recovered from the train. Two carriages of the train have been completely destroyed as a result of the fire.
