Budapest  - An express train slammed into the back of a local train outside Budapest on Monday, killing a man and injuring 30 people, a news agency reported.

Rescuers were sifting through the wreckage and did not rule out further fatalities, Hungary's MTI agency said.

The intercity train was heading toward the Hugarian capital when it collided with the other train at the Monorierdo station, MTI said. (dpa)
