A train crash in Perth was caused by millions of millipedes making the tracks too slippery for braking. The crash occurred at about 6.40am, according to local media reports.

A train had pulled up to the station platform at a suburban train stop and passengers had begun boarding the train to travel to Perth.

A second train was approaching the station and the driver began applying the brakes.

However, the train did not brake in time.

It is suspected an infestation of Portuguese millipedes on the tracks caused the tracks to become slippery and prevent the brakes from properly working.

The freak of nature has happened before on the Perth railway network.

The second train crashed slowly into the stationary train. A half dozen passengers were treated for stiff necks as a result of the jolting collision.
