Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The tramway that had sunk in the Riachuelo while being removed from water by a group of workers, the day after the tragedy. The vehicle had departured from Lanús and had 63 people inside at the moment of the accident, that happened when the driver (Italian immigrant Juan Vesco) attempted to cross the Bosch bridge without realising that the spans were opened to allow the passage of a boat, due to the thick fog. As a result, the tram fell into the river: 56 people died and only 7 survived the tragedy.
Español: Rescate de las aguas del tranvía que el día anterior (12 de julio) había caído al Riachuelo. El vehículo había partido desde Lanús, y llevaba 63 personas a bordo al momento del accidente. El mismo ocurrió cuando el conductor, el inmigrante italiano Juan Vesco, cruzó el puente Bosch sin darse cuenta (debido a la espesa niebla) de que las señales estaban en rojo. El puente solía levantarse para permitir el paso de barcazas por el Riachuelo, quedando interrumpido su cruce durante ese lapso. En el hecho murieron 56 personas, y sólo 7 sobrevivieron.
