(AP) A high-speed magnetic train traveling at nearly 125 mph crashed in northwestern Germany on Friday, killing 15 of the 29 people aboard in the first fatal wreck involving the high-tech system.

Officials recovered 15 bodies from the wreckage of the experimental train that struck a maintenance vehicle while running on an elevated track, said prosecutor Alexander Retemeyer. Another 10 passengers were injured.
