It’s either we can’t really understand it or we just can’t believe the explanation for the MRT crash on Wednesday afternoon, August 13.
“Light Rail Transit Authority spokesman Hernando Cabrera said the train crashed into the barrier after being uncoupled with another train that was pushing it to the EDSA-Taft station,” reports ABS-CBNnews.com.
Cabrera explained that “the defective train loaded with passengers initially lost power so it was coupled with another train that will push it.”
But, as Cabrera continued, “the first train became uncoupled with the second train that led to the crash.”

Now, they’re trying to figure out “how the two trains became uncoupled.”
Meanwhile, there is no official statement yet on the number of people injured in the crash. The last number we heard was 36, but that may still change.
