Funerals begin as town mourns victims of Pakistan train fire

Description

Distraught relatives gather for the first funerals of some of the 74 people killed when fire ripped through a crowded train in Pakistan, with many of the victims residents of a single town. Fire engulfed the crowded carriages of a passenger train on Thursday when some of the train's passengers cooked breakfast around dawn and two of their gas cylinders exploded, sending flames racing through three carriages as the train passed near Rahim Yar Khan, in Punjab province.
