@Shell

You're contradicting yourself, I'm afraid.

To clarify

From what I've read in the Polish press (I'm from Łódź - actually couldn't get to the uni because of the derailment, it's pronounced /wooch/, btw), the problem is that he switched the points when the tram was halfway through it, thus derailing it. There should be some sort of protection against it, but it's installed only in few places (and since the transport company is renting the tracks from the city - which in turn gives them money for renovation - both refuse to take responsibility for that).

Beg pardon?
