Russian investigators today launched a terrorism probe into a bomb blast that derailed an express train from Moscow to St. Petersburg, injuring more than 60 people traveling on one of the country's busiest rail routes.
The explosion occurred late Monday near the city of Novgorod, about 300 miles northwest of Moscow. Investigators said they believe a homemade bomb placed underneath the railroad tracks was detonated by remote control as the Nevsky Express train passed by with 251 people aboard.
