Lisbon: Portuguese authorities were on Friday expected to release preliminary findings on what caused the fatal derailment of one of Lisbon's famous funicular trains, which killed 16 people.
The agency responsible for investigating air and rail accidents is set to publish a preliminary report on the circumstances of Wednesday's tragedy "probably within 45 days", chief police investigator Nelson Oliveira said on Thursday evening.
But a first report would be published before the end of Friday, he added.
Speaking alongside Oliveira at a press conference, judicial police chief Luis Neves said the investigation would not rule out any potential causes.
