Image description

They were going to celebrate Christmas. In New Zealand, on the Wellington-Auckland line, on the night of Christmas Eve, just moments after the waters of the Wangaehu River, overwhelmed by the rains, had overwhelmed a railway bridge, and an express train arrived at full speed. In the dark, the driver did not see the chasm open in front. The locomotive and six wagons then plunged into the river, sinking. One hundred and twelve dead. Illustration for Courier Sunday, 10 January 1954.
