When I lived in Germany, I traveled by train a lot. The german bullet train is the ICE. I got on once and there was a very subdued atmosphere inside. The village before ours was too small for the ICE to stop at, but it did fly through the station at a very fast speed as was typical. A student had been standing on the platform and was pushed in front of the train as it flew through. I had some friends in that city who were traveling to the same destination on a slower train and witnessed the whole thing. There wasn't much left of the dead student. As for the crowd of students who were involved in the pushing, they disappeared almost as fast. I don't know if any were caught. After that incident I stayed far from the tracks while waiting on the platforms.
