According to Shanghai Daily, seven workers were buried when a construction site in Jiangsu Province collapsed earlier today. The accident took place this morning in Lucheng Township, Danyang City. The workers were helping to build the new Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, which is supposed to accommodate bullet trains that can travel up to 350kmph and cut the travel time between China's two mega-cities to roughly five hours.
