>I live in Spain, this year we had 4 derailments for a total of 48 deaths and 195 injured. Which, to be clear, is a considerable outlier. Highest since 2013 and about double the deaths and 4x the injured of a "normal" year. Not to mention that trains are far safer than automobiles too. >The USA has had 0 passengers killed or injured from train accidents this year. Is this a fantastic, magical year or something? The normal number seems to be around 800 a year? https://www.kochandbrim.com/study-train-accident-deaths/ | ||

Your number includes suicides, trespassing and more. Only 24 passenger deaths in a ten year period. | ||
