From the BBC:

Passengers injured after land train tips over



Seven people have been taken to hospital, including three children, after a land train with passengers on board tipped over in Cornwall.

Police officers were called to Tregoad Holiday Park, in St Martin, near Looe, on Wednesday at about 18:55 GMT.

Looe Land Train said the carriage of the land train "tipped over" and a number of its passengers were injured.

Devon and Cornwall Police said seven people were taken to Derriford Hospital in Plymouth for assessment and treatment after initial reports suggested 10 had been admitted to hospital.

Cornwall Air Ambulance said one of those injured had to be flown from the scene to Derriford.
