  "account": "Around 150 passengers were evacuated from a train following a collision with a lorry on a level crossing in Gelderland. The incident occurred on Horsterweg, Elmelo, just after 10am on Monday. The Sprinter train was en route to Harderwijk when the crash happened. Two individuals on the train and the lorry driver were treated for minor injuries. The passengers were guided to the station, and buses were arranged to transport them to their destinations. The lorry was carrying concrete blocks on a low loader. According to NS, the cleanup process is expected to take several hours, and all trains between Amersfoort and Zwolle are cancelled for the rest of the day. Replacement buses are operating between Putten and Nunspeet. The lorry driver was transported to a hospital for treatment. Police stated that the investigation into the cause of the crash is ongoing.
