The family of the victim of Friday's fatal train accident in Switzerland gave a press conference in Geneva on Tuesday.

Japanese tourist Yasuko Kunimoto died when three carriages of the Glacier Express derailed between Lax and Fiesch while going over a viaduct.

Kunimoto's sons spoke of their mother's strong love for her children and their grief at her death. They also visited their father in hospital, who was injured in the accident.

Forty people were injured in the train crash.

Investigators are looking into the cause of the accident.

The Glacier Express travels from the resort town of St. Moritz through spectacular Alpine scenery to Zermatt, which is dominated by the Matterhorn.
