Punching in train accidents speeding uk in to Google/Wikipedia isn't research.
Reading the full accident enquiry reports is.
Err... LTC Rolt, OS Nock, Stanley Hall and others on my bookshelf. An entire set of Alan Earnshaw's 'Trains in Trouble' series. Have read the full reports of all the accidents I listed, mostly from therailwaysarchive.co.uk. In the days before official reports were available online I regularly purchased them from HMSO. Have read all the reports published by the RAIB since 2006 and have email alerts set-up from them. Wrote a large article for a local paper on the 10th anniversary of the Taunton Sleeper Car fire, the article being a re-write of a paper submitted for my A-level English.
It may be an unusual branch of rail enthusiasm, but I've always been interested in the accidents and incidents.
As I said before, feel free to draw inferences from what I post, but don't presume to know how I know things. It would get pretty tedious if posts were required to have line by line citations showing source material.
Because at least one of the ones you had listed had other major contributory factors.
Nearly all accidents involving excessive speed have other major contributory factors. But I'll say it again, my list was in response to
notadriver saying, "British drivers are professional and don't speed." That's all it was. Examples to disprove a statement, drawn from a wide reading of the subject over 25 years.
notadriver has subsequently back-pedalled slightly from that statement by saying he meant that British train drivers don't do it
deliberately. I could draw an inference from that, but as it may be the wrong inference I'll not do so.
