Investigations were underway to determine the cause of the crash, which vaulted one car fully on top of a car from the other train.

Authorities have not identified the two people killed. The nine injured included four Chinese nationals who were receiving treatment at hospitals near the crash site in San Bernardo, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/chile-articles" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Chile</a>.
