Historically, most train accidents involve another vehicle; be it car, plane, trucks, or another train. Train crossings are a big issue for trains because people do things they shouldn’t. In 2022, by this point in the year there had been 8 train accidents with only 2 of those being the train derailment or infrastructure issue that caused the accident. This year has been special, meaning we’ve had a lot of train accidents that are the train or infrastructure issues that caused the train to crash. We’re at 11 train accidents with only one involving another moving vehicle.
