Zonhoven An 87-year-old driver from Zonhoven on the day after christmas, an incredible amount of luck. The man had by the low winter sun to let seen that the spooroverweg to the Halveweg was closed.
He rode a train in just the stop ‘Zonhoven’ arrived. His car was at the back caught and thrown back. The wreck turned a few times around and then back at the spoorinstallatie catapulted. Witnesses rushed to his side immediately to help. But to their astonishment, stepped the man unharmed from the wreck. “’t even have a single dent, I have,” he declared afterwards. “That seems to me a small kerstwonder.”
