The power of train (9 pics)

Although the experiment was quite dangerous (the train could go off the rails), but the pictures turned out to be very good.
Various objects (bottles, apples, stones) were put on the rails just before a train passes at a high speed smashing them and turning those objects into dust. High-speed photography was used to make these great shots.

The scheme of coal theft in railway stations in China is well established.
I would say that there is an entire criminal group, rather large and with its own transport.
