1890 Bathurst rail collision

1890 train collision in Bathurst, Australia

Between 6 and 7 pm AEST, on 25 April 1890, sixteen carriages of a mixed-use train detached from the leading carriages and rolled down a steep grade east of Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia. The runaway carriages then collided with the front of a following goods train at the Russell Street level crossing. Four passengers who were still in the rear carriages died as well as hundreds of sheep.
