Train wreck at Montparnasse, France in 1895




The engineer, to his horror, found out that he had no brakes while approaching the station in Montparnasse and could not stop in time. The train barreled through the station and ended up going out the window on the other end.

It's sort of like the ending of "Silver Streak", only without Gene Wilder. And the tracks happened to be on the second floor.
