(see related) (ANSA) - ROME, AUG 31 - Prosecutors and technical experts are looking into the circumstances of Wednesday evening's rail accident in which five railway workers were hit and killed by a train travelling at speed while working on the tracks at Brandizzo station near Turin shortly before midnight, Deputy Premier and Transport and Infrastructure Minister Matteo Salvini said on Thursday.
    "Prosecutors and technicians are verifying how such a dramatic accident could have occurred last night," Salvini wrote on Facebook.
    "The rule is that work on the tracks can only commence once it has been certified that there are no trains on the line," he added. (ANSA).
