Bramminge Train Accident
The Bramminge railway accident happened in Denmark on 26 July 1913, when train 1029 (known as ''the Emigrant'') servicing the route from Copenhagen to Esbjerg derailed soon after passing the station of Bramminge (now spelled Bramming) just 20 km East of Esbjerg. What happened and why Express 1029 was due to depart from Fredericia at 14:50. The train, which included through-coaches from Copenhagen, was larger than usual, so an A-class locomotive was added to the usual K-class locomotive. In addition to the locomotives, the train was made up of a covered goods van, a mail van, a bogie carriage, three wooden compartment coach (direct access from platform to compartments: no corridor) including two four-wheelers built in 1865, and then four more bogie carriages. The train finally pulled out at 15:06. On arrival at Lunderskov the train had made up three minutes of its delay and seemed likely to make up the rest without running too fast.

Railway Town
A railway town, or railroad town, is a settlement that originated or was greatly developed because of a railway station or junction at its site. North America During the construction of the First transcontinental railroad in the 1860s, temporary, "Hell on wheels" towns, made mostly of canvas tents, accompanied the Union Pacific Railroad as construction headed west. Most faded away but some became permanent settlements. In the 1870s successive boomtowns sprung up in Kansas, each prospering for a year or two as a railhead, and withering when the rail line extended further west and created a new endpoint for the Chisholm Trail. Becoming rail hubs made Chicago and Los Angeles grow from small towns to large cities. Sayre, Pennsylvania and Atlanta, Georgia were among the American company towns created by railroads in places where no settlement already existed. In western Canada, railway towns became associated with brothels and prostitution, and concerned railway companies started ...
