1917 railway accident in France

The Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne derailment of December 12, 1917, was a railway accident involving a troop train carrying at least 1,000 French soldiers on their way home for leave from the Italian front in World War I. A derailment as the train descended the Maurienne Valley on the Culoz–Modane railway caused a catastrophic crash and subsequent fire in which more than 435 died; a second record reports that 675 died.
