- Q1312437 abstract "The Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne derailment of December 12, 1917 was a railway accident involving a troop train carrying at least 1,000 French soldiers on their way home for leave from the Italian front in World War I. A derailment as the train descended the Maurienne valley rail line caused a catastrophic crash and subsequent fire in which approximately 700 died. France's deadliest rail accident, it occurred on the Culoz–Modane railway line, part of the Fréjus Railway.Due to a shortage of locomotives in the area during World War I, the local commanding officer for rail traffic chose to couple two trains of 19 coaches to carry troops, to a single 4-6-0 engine. Of those coaches, only the first three had air brakes, the remaining coaches had only hand brakes or no brakes at all. The driver initially refused to drive the engine of such an overloaded train, which was now four times the safety limit for the engine, but was threatened at gunpoint by a French officer and forced to proceed.On leaving Modane, the train descended into a valley; the driver applied the brakes to no effect, owing to the heavy load. After continuing at a dangerous and uncontrolled rate of speed into the valley for nearly 6.5 kilometres (4.0 mi) at speeds of up to 135 kilometres per hour (84 mph), the first coach derailed at Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne, causing a pile-up and resultant fire. Because of the fire and impact, only 425 of some 700 troops killed could be identified.".
