Driverless journey of goods train raises concern
The goods train, consisting of over 50 coaches, started its driverless expedition at a speed ranging from 70 to 80 kilometers per hour. This surprising incident unfolded without any casualties or damage to property, raising eyebrows about how the train could travel such a distance unmanned.
