| Description | Dublin train crash |
| Details |
Harcourt Street terminus of the Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway. A cattle train with twenty six wagons pulled in to the station at such speed the buffer failed to stop it. It crashed through the end wall into Hatch Street where the weight of the train behind thankfully prevented the engine from falling. Miraculously, only the driver suffered injury.
