Horrific Thai Bus Accident
-
Very sad.
A bus taking students from a school in Uthai Thani caught fire on Tuesday and rescue volunteers said a number of young passengers had died in the flames or were injured.
from later update
The bus was carrying 38 students, from Kindergarten 2 to Mathayom 3 (NOTE - this mean about age 14) and six teachers from Wat Khao Praya Sangkharam school in Lan Sak district of Uthai Thani province.
Twenty students and three teachers on the field trip were confirmed killed by the inferno. The survivors were all rushed to hospitals.
The bus was about 55 years old and was originally a diesel bus that had been converted to operate on natural gas.

Green energy, FTW!️️
Seriously, diesel burns, CNG explodes.
And also, being Thailand, I am guessing the renovation was done without any permits or checking by experts.
