Winsum train disaster

The Winsum train disaster took place on 25 July 1980 near Winsum in the Dutch province of Groningen. 9 people died and 21 were injured. The accident took place on a single track between Sauwerd and Roodeschool which did not have ATB or signals, instead the drivers were informed by radio where other trains on the tracks were, which was a less reliable system that relied on trust. In the early foggy morning of 25 July the driver of commuter train 8726 departed from Winsum railway station.

Located at 53.3177, 6.52824 (Lat. / Lng.), about 2 miles away.
