Eleni Zaggelidou, one of ten coroners working on the investigation, said DNA had been taken from 57 intact bodies. A government minister said austerity during Greece's economic crisis in the 2000s had contributed to a lack of investment in the railways. Rail workers held a one-day strike on Thursday following the disaster, blaming government neglect. More than 2,000 people protested for a second day in Athens and Thessaloniki, shocked by the disaster near the city of Larissa. "We are angry at the company, at the government and past governments that did nothing to improve conditions in the Greek railway," said pensioner Stavros Nantis in Athens.
