October 2025 - Dataset View and OData/API Connection Change Notice - Please Read: https://data.transportation.gov/stories/s/6kdh-gsgx Rail equipment accidents/incidents, collisions, derailments, fires, explosions, acts of God, or other events involving the operation of railroad on-track equipment (standing or moving) and causing reportable damages greater than the reporting threshold for the year in which the accident/incident occurred, must be reported by railroads to the FRA on Form FRA 6180.54 - Rail Equipment Accident/Incident. Please note that this dataset displays unique train accidents. When an accident involves multiple railroads, each railroad must report its data. As a result, there can be multiple records for one accident. This dataset has been modified to pull and display one record for each accident. Highway-rail crossing incidents have also been removed from this dataset because they are not considered train accidents.
