Never seen a thread like this here. Post and discuss specific accidents, incidents, or disasters involving roads/highways, aviation, railroads, etc.
This one happened not too far from me back in 1995 in Fox River Grove, IL about 42 miles northwest of Chicago. A commuter train traveling at about 70 mph smashed into a school bus full of high schoolers. Resulted in 7 deaths, 21 injuries. The bus driver, who was a substitute who had never driven the route, misjudged the amount of space on the opposite side of the track and left the back end of the bus hanging over the rails while at a red light.
