surrounding roads totally buggered.
Cop cars out in force.Sirens still going .

a tram appeared to be stopped over the cherry orchard rd entrance / exit.
people were emptying off it.
this was about 6am-6.15.

A tram overturned at Sandilands. Sounds serious.

Anyone know anything more? Apparently the tram was at the end of the tunnel between Lloyd Park and Sandilands, I assume driver error. I am guessing going too fast in the wet and slippery conditions. Injured taken to St Mildred's in Bingham Road. I fear there will have been deaths. East Croydon is locked down.

apparently it derailed in the tunnel, which made things more complicated regarding access and getting people out. I did get the lowdown this morning but it was just after I woke up - I think 6 seriously injured and others less so.

I hope not. Latest report (17 mins ago) says 2 still trapped and 50 hurt 4 seriously.

Some newspaper reports of "fatalities" but they are three/ four hours old and probably posted just after it happened.
