Causes of Train Accidents

Train accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, such as:

  • Derailments
    Poorly engineered track components, railway obstructions, or environmental damage to train equipment can cause trains to run off their tracks.
  • Improper Operation
    Speeding, signal errors, or mistakes behind the controls may lead to accidents with motor vehicles or other trains.
  • Poor Maintenance
    Accidents can happen when railroad companies fail to maintain important safety equipment, such as train braking systems or railway crossing signals.
