Eschede, Germany

Sadly the site of one of the most deadly train disasters in railroad history, when a high speed train derailed due to a wheel rim fracture. The derailment took place at 200km/h right before a bridge, which collapsed from the impact of a car, and the following two thirds of the train were compressed to just a few meters from the weight of the bridge body, their own kinetic energy, and on impact of the trailing power car. For the people in the cars that were buried under the bridge there was no chance of survival.

I was only a child, but I remember those few images of the ICE wreckage broadcast by the TV-news channel.
