A Johannesburg man was killed when he was hit by a train near Park Station on Friday, emergency services said.
Spokesperson Percy Morokane said the man was illegally crossing the railway line when the accident occurred.
“He was cut into half, his body parts were 15 metres apart.”
This was the third fatal train accident this week. The first was on Tuesday in which a man was killed.
In the second accident a 17-year-old boy was killed while train surfing on Wednesday in Jabulani, Soweto.
