Yeh, I read about it too. Luckily nobody lost their lives. |
Wrong. Several sheep did not leave the scene. Animal protection lobbyists now demand that sheep shall not get hit by express trains with speeds in excess of a safety speed set below the 200 km/h by which this ICE was racing through the tunnel.  we really should treat our sheep better than that. |
Oh yeh. Sorry. Poor sheeps.
