The in-depth story of the Sri Lanka Tsunami Train Disaster 2004 (a Train Wreck Documentary). It’s a busy day at the Ambalangoda train station. The No. 50 Matara Express, meaning Queen of the Sea, has just pulled up to the platform fully loaded with passengers. The eight-carriage train carries around 1,700 passengers travelling from Sri Lanka’s largest city of Colombo to the city of Galle on the south of the island. It is Sunday, December 26, 2004, Boxing Day. For most passengers, however, today is Poya Day, a Buddhist holiday celebrating the full moon. Many use the opportunity to travel down south to some of the country’s beautiful resorts... The “Boxing Day Tsunami” had a devastating effect, claiming around 228,000 lives, nearly 170,000 in Indonesia. Sri Lanka was second to that, with 36,000 people losing their lives in the flooding. We reveal the world's darkest and greatest disasters all based on true stories. This disaster documentary is inspired by the fantastic "Fascinating Horror".
