A train incident refers to any event involving a train that disrupts its normal operation or poses a risk to safety. This can include a variety of occurrences such as collisions with other trains or vehicles, derailments, accidents involving pedestrians, mechanical failures, or other situations that may result in injury, fatality, or damage. Train incidents can take place on tracks, at stations, or in maintenance facilities and can involve passenger trains, freight trains, or maintenance-of-way vehicles. The term encompasses both minor incidents that are quickly resolved and major disasters that may have widespread consequences.
