Explanation:
Sudden violent jolt'
The crash took place at about 09:00 local time (01:00 GMT).
Some people at the back of the train were able to walk away unscathed, while 100 were rescued from the first four carriages. Many of the dead, injured and trapped were in four crumpled carriages inside the tunnel.
"It felt like there was a sudden violent jolt and I found myself falling to the floor," one female survivor told Taiwan's UDN. "We broke the window to climb to the roof of the train to get out."
Another rescued woman said: "My whole body fell to the floor. I hit my head and it started bleeding."
A 50-year-old survivor told Apple Daily she saw many people trapped under their seats and when she walked out of her carriage she saw bodies everywhere.

Enough focus on safety?
Analysis by BBC's Cindy Sui in Taiwan
Taiwan has an impressive transportation network, including more than 1,000km of railway tracks. The trains transport more than 200 million passengers each year.
Accidents are rare, but this latest derailment - if it was indeed caused by a construction vehicle parked on a nearby slope sliding onto the tracks - would add to a number of recent incidents that have been blamed on negligence and/or human error.
They include:
a train derailment in 2018 caused by a faulty speed alert system and a driver busy talking to the command centre who failed to slow down before entering a curve - 18 people died
a number of deadly fires inside factories that have housed unsafe dormitories for workers
a bridge collapse in 2019 caused by lack of maintenance, which killed four migrant fishermen in a boat
a chemical explosion in 2014 caused by neglect of underground pipelines - 32 people died
This latest accident once again raises questions about whether Taiwan is placing enough importance on safety and preventing accidents.

Many of those on the train are believed to have been travelling to celebrate the Tomb Sweeping festival - a time when people pay their respects to the dead by visiting the graves of family members, sprucing them up and making offerings to their spirits.
The island's worst crash in recent history was in 1991, when 30 passengers were killed and 112 injured after two trains collided.
