Train carrying about 490 passengers derailed 50 confirmed dead.

A busy passenger train carrying 490 people has derailed in a tunnel in eastern Taiwan, killing at least 51 and injuring dozens more, authorities said.

The eight car train, traveling to Taitung, came off the rails in a tunnel just north of Hualien Friday morning, causing several carriages to hit the wall of the tunnel, the government-run Central News Agency (CNA) reported, citing the fire department.

The train driver is among the dead, the fire department told the country's executive office, and at least 66 survivors are being treated in several hospitals in the surrounding Hualien County.

Some of the dead are still awaiting identification, the government added Friday, but authorities believe that everyone trapped within the train's heavily damaged carriages have been removed.

Little did he realise, the beast was pregnant with three pups and he found one of them with a distinctive feature – two large round eyes underneath its nose. The unborn mutant pup has its eyes right under the pointed snout, rather than at the two sides. With its mouth remaining open, it looks like the creature has a human face. Abdullah said it was the only pup to have been so deformed after catching its mum. He explained: "I initially found a mother shark caught in the trawler net. "The next day I split the belly of the mother shark and found three pups in the stomach. Two were like the mother and this one that looked like it had a human face." The fisherman said he took the baby s
