5th anniv. of deadly Amagasaki train accident

TOTTORI, Japan - This 1998 photo shows Kyosuke Heguri (C) who was killed in the April 25, 2005, deadly train accident in Amagasaki, Hyogo Prefecture, along with 106 others. His father broke his long silence ahead of the fifth anniversary of the incident, saying, ''I feel a strong desire to see Kyosuke rather than anger at West Japan Railway Co.,'' which operated the train. Beside Kyosuke is Yoshihiro Nakajima, now a reporter with Kyodo News. (Kyodo)
