Twello train accident

1900 railway incident in the Netherlands

The Twello train accident was a railway accident on 22 December 1900 at 21:00 in front of the Twello railway station, Twello, in the Netherlands. The express train from Amsterdam collided head-to-head with a regional train from Almelo to Apeldoorn. Normally these trains pass each other at Bathmen, but due to a delay of the express train, the crossing was changed to Twello.
