"PARIS (AP) — One of France’s vaunted high-speed trains derailed Thursday morning on a trip to Paris, injuring 21 people including the driver, officials said.

The driver, who was seriously injured, managed to slam on the emergency brakes and bring the train to a halt. It was the first derailment of a TGV train in nearly 40 years of commercial service.

Regional authorities said 20 other people also suffered injuries, some of them slight. Train operator SNCF said they included the train conductor, who suffered a back injury.

The train, carrying 300 passengers, was traveling from Colmar in eastern France to the capital and was racing along at 270 kph (170 mph) when it jumped the tracks...

I've been aboard a TGV several times. It's cool but also a little terrifying. When you look out a window, the outside is a blur.

The fact that this is the first derailment in 40-odd years of service is a pretty impressive safety record. I wasn't previously aware that it was that good.
