The 1st, 2nd and 3rd cars and the roof of the 4th car on the embankment after 14

This anonymous photograph, likely taken after 1914, depicts the aftermath of a train accident. The image shows the first three cars of the train and the roof of the fourth car, all of which are destroyed and lying on their side. The scene is chaotic, with debris scattered across the embankment and a group of figures gathered nearby, presumably the survivors. The photograph serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of rail travel and the fragility of human life. The image likely reflects the anxieties of the early 20th century, as technological advancements often brought with them unforeseen risks.
