Or Eschede, Germany - June 3rd, 1998 an ICE train's wheel broke, got stuck in the floor of a train car and hit a switch. This sent car 3 on another track and against a bridge's pillar. The bridge collapsed, 101 people lost their life and 105 were injured because the train was travelling at a speed of almost 200 km/h and the cars jack-knifed into each other against the collapsed bridge. It's been ICE 883 "Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen" (yeah, some long-distance trains in Germany have a name...) going from Munich to Hamburg.

Apart from the 2004 sri lanka incident wich is largely considered a natural disaster, the romanian train accident from 1916 is actually the train accident with the most fatalities ever... the sri lanka accident claimed more lives, but that accident happened because of a natural disaster... the romanian accident was trully an accident... where arround 1200 people lost their lives... similar to the french accident from 1918, but historians tell the romanian one claimed slightly more lives... and yet, the goverment kept it a secret to keep the army's morale high... if you ask any romanian today about the Ciurea accident, 99,9% of romanians have no ideea that such an accident occured 100 years ago... the only indicator that there was an accident you will find at Ciurea. (wich is the small village where the accident happened)... on a field across from the rail station you will find 1 cruce... and thats it... hard to belive that is the sight of the deadliest train accident in history... this accident (when it comes to fatalities) is on par with the Titanic disaster... and while everybody has heard of Titanic, almost no one remembers the Ciurea incident... thats how well the goverment covered it up...

There was an explosion in Russia next to a train line that may have killed 1000 people. A gas line had been leaking for at least a week and sparks from the train ignited the gas. Then you covered the incident, well done

I was on jury duty a few years ago and the case was about a track inspector fired for reporting bad tracks due to bad weather or missing parts. His boss told him to stop reporting so they could get a bigger bonus but he was obligated to follow standards so shit like derailments don’t happen

There was a derailment at Frankford Junction, in the Harrowgate neighborhood in Philadelphia, PA, caused when a journal box burned out while the train was moving at 50 MPH. A car that had the journal box burn out shot upward, hit a signal gantry, and dragged 8 cars off the rails. There were 79 passengers killed. This location was just west of where an Amtrak train tried to take a 55MPH-rated curve at 103MPH, and derailed the entire train on May 12, 2015. Eight passengers were killed in that crash.

You can add the 1908 Sunshine disaster in Victoria, Australia. A Bendigo to Melbourne train rear-ended a Ballarat to Melbourne train at Sunshine. Out of 16 coaches, only 1 survived undamaged. This has now been restored (in the 1990's) to operational condition.

The Malbone Street Subway wreck in NYC (At 10:35) was a caused by a Supervisor (Not a "Novice Operator") driving the train train during a strike of BMT subway workers. The Supervisor did not know how to control the train on the downgrade, casuing the derailment and fatalities.

There is an accident in Padang Panjang, Sumatera, Dutch East Indies (Now Indonesia) on Christmas 1944. A passenger train fell off a bridge in Anai Valley. 200 people killed, and 250 were injured. And few months later, the same accident happened again, with unknown numbers of casualties. Unfortunately because it happened in WW2, not many people even the locals today didn't knew about this accident and there are not many references made to this accident.
