The accident occurred on Thursday evening in a mountainous area west of Beijing, on the surface of the Changping Line.
Due to the slippery rails, the train ahead automatically braked. The train behind him was on a downhill stretch, skidded and was unable to brake in time, the municipal transportation department said in a statement.
