There's no stopping this train...

Carrying 131 passengers, the express train from Granville to Paris was running late on October 22, 1895. The driver increased the speed of the steam locomotive to make up on lost time.
On entering the Montparnasse station, the train was traveling between 25 to 37 miles per hour. Attempts to stop the train in time failed, resulting in the train crashing through the buffers at the end of the track, crossed the 100-foot concourse and burst through the wall of the station, tumbling onto the street below.
