A driverless train in Argentina sped 150 kilometres across the country before being brought to a stop.
It reached speeds of up to 70 kilometres per hour, forcing police to close all railroad crossings to avoid a disaster. Fortunately nobody was injured.
The runaway finally came to a stop after ploughing into another train, left in the way on purpose.
