Railway Accidents 1990 -1991

Model railroaders can get frustrated with derailments and accidents that happen with model train sets. Sadly, real train accidents are far more serious and cause tragedy and mayhem like what happened in Pakistan in 1990 and 1991:

January 4, 1990

More than 210 people killed and hundreds injured when an overcrowded 16-car passenger train struck a standing freight train in Sindh Province, Pakistan.

June 8, 1991

A train carrying 800 passengers from Karachi to Lahore slammed into a parked freight train at Ghotki, Pakistan, killing more than 100 people.
