Each newspaper that tells derailment accident of Keikyu
Big map
Seven in April, 1997 14:47 It went up to the place where the cliff between Taura and Anjinzuka had collapsed, the train usually thrust, and it was derailed. 19 passenger trainmen owed minor and serious injuries.
The newspaper to tell this one accident by the color picture insertion also pulled a lot of public notices.
When the newspaper is read, the treatment differs, and is interesting respectively. I want to adhere to the treatment of each newspaper of Kanagawa Shimbun, Tokyo Shimbun, Nihon Keizai Shimbun, the Sankei Shimbun, Mainichi Shimbun, the Yomiuri Shimbun, and Asahi Shimbun here and to compare it.

The generation time of the accident is 14:47 according to the inform promptly that projects to Umugieki. Each newspaper company indicates rough time by the expression ".. about 40 minutes" and ".. about 45 minutes", and can say that the difference of its carving for ten minutes or carving for five minutes will have gone out.
Kanagawa Shimbun and Mainichi Shimbun ..map where the generation place of the accident is shown.. show a big) chart to scale about the crash site ..comparatively in detail.. ..(... Kanagawa Shimbun publishes one in detailed figure only of the local paper. Mainichi Shimbun is 27 publishing, and figure also lacks details like Kanagawa Shimbun. Other newspaper shows the Miura peninsula in the figure, and shows a rough position.
When thrusting it in the cliff crumble, the speed is a speed. There is no mark concerning the speed Tokyo, Sankei, and Mainichi.
It guesses and it is expressed to Kanagawa Shimbun vaguely, "It was not finished that the speed went up because the derailed train was usually a train, too".
Nikkei¢It noticed though earth and sand just crumbled in this side of the site about 100 meters running at a speed of 80 kilos per hour. It was not in time though it had slammed on the brakes. £It is said that it spoke solving. Hearsay..considerably..detailed..driver..testimony..record.
The testimony and Yomiuri's fact relevance of the driver of "The landslide is generated in the place where it approached the site at the speed of 80-90 kilos" and Nikkei are corresponding.
After guessing the speed, the Asahi : , saying that "The speed is guessed to be about 60 kilos per hour". ¢The special express train . . It runs on the site at a speed of about 80 kilos per hour, and there is a possibility of becoming a bigger accident. £It makes, and the proportion guesses certain to the size of the accident and the speed of the train.
The taking a picture time and the taking a picture place are the taking a picture time and places of each newspaper. When time is different in both 1 and the social column, it is recorded in the order. Kanagawa Shimbun runs to sites earliest, and the photograph in front of the train with power is taken. The splinter of the glass that the seat is detailed ..detaching (Was the stretcher comparatively used?).. only in Tokyo Shimbun (social column) captures the situation that had been scattered putting the photograph in the car. It is Tokyo, Yomiuri, a Asahi that puts the aerophotograph from the helicopter, and the time approaches. At least three helicopters were turning around the sky over the site at almost the same time.
The opposing train is how to express a descending fast special express that approaches the site at this time. "Fast special express" is "Special express" and expresses it to Asahi Shimbun and Tokyo Shimbun that the reason for is that the train type of original Keikyu. Kanagawa Shimbun of "Fast special express" and the local paper expressed Nikkei Shimbun and the Yomiuri Shimbun as it was as "Fast" train that was the abbreviation of the user. It gave priority to the expression if both were in finding, and it quoted it from the text inside in case of not being.
The crash site is a steep slope land of the Keikyu ownership. The problem of each newspaper same is pointed out to the accident in the location of which the judgment with "It is unquestionable" had gone out in the safety check. Moreover, the driver who raises an alarm is taken up with another frame though Tokyo Shimbun sustains severe injuries , saying that "The warning serious injury motorman and the second collision ..hair's breadth special express.. are prevented". Moreover, each newspaper is reporting that the passenger uses the cellular phone, the 119th was multiplied, and it contacted the relative acquaintance each other.
Kanagawa Shimbun spares the most a lot of space, and the congestion of Yokohama Station and Kanazawa-bunko Station is told when adhering to the influence of this accident. On the other hand, Tokyo Shimbun is telling only congestion with Shinagawa Station.
