Only 218 of them, about 3%, were train passengers. Most victims were people on the tracks: trespassers walking or crossing where they shouldn't, and drivers or pedestrians hit at level crossings. Trespassers are the largest group in most countries. Poland and Germany together account for more than a third of all deaths. Greece had the most passenger deaths, 51, most of them in the Tempi collision in 2023. Suicides are counted separately and not included. Cyprus and Malta have no railways.
