A Russian incident

A train crash on the route to Kyiv.
The Coronavirus that is going around the globe reminded me of something that happened many years ago, near Kyiv in Russia.

At the time, I used to listen on the short wave band to messages from all over the globe, even religious broadcasts from America. This one concerned two trains heading across Russia, one was going into Kyiv, and the other leaving the city.
There was a report that they were carrying toxic nuclear waste when they collided; naturally, nothing official was said. 
This incident lead me to write a short story about such a train crash, and the extent the government would go to keep it quiet.
