2003 train crash in New South Wales, Australia
At approximately 7:15 am AEDT, on 31 January 2003, south of Waterfall, New South Wales, Australia, an Intercity Tangara G set derailed on a curve at high speeds when the driver had a heart attack, and the deadman's brake failed. The incident killed seven people aboard, including the train driver, and injured 40. The accident is notably remembered by systems engineers due to the poorly designed safety systems.
