Taiwan’s fire department said all four people were rescued from a building housing a convenience store that collapsed in Yuli, while three people whose vehicle fell off a damaged bridge were rescued and taken to hospital.
The Taiwan Railways Administration said six carriages came off the rails at Dongli station in eastern Taiwan after part of the platform canopy collapsed, but the fire department said there were no injuries.

Looks like that previous 6.4 may have been a foreshock...
26 earthquakes at the 10.00 Km level world wide. Looks like quite a battle going on down there.

Afternoon.just felt mild trembling where I am, but a little further south bridges and buildings collapsed. One was an elementary school.good thing it is Sunday.
