PATRICK WARD<br />
A New Zealand tourist fell to his death from a<br />
moving train on the World War II “death railway” in<br />
Kanchanaburi province in western Thailand.<br />
Patrick Ward, 45, had come with a group led by<br />
a tour guide from River Kwai bridge and rode<br />
the train yesterday to see the death railway, also<br />
known as the Thai-Burma Railway.<br />
Ward opened a door of the train and tried to take<br />
a selfie to show the view outside but he slipped<br />
on the steps at the door and fell to his death.<br />
The tour guides had warned travellers not to lean<br />
out of the carriages, which have open spaces<br />
where they connect. Doors can also be opened<br />
for passengers to sit on the steps and they can<br />
also lean from the windows.<br />
