The Derailment at Moirans - A Glimpse into a Tragic Moment in History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph, captured by Dete, Beltrand, and Clair-Guyot in 1891, offers a haunting glimpse into the aftermath of the devastating train derailment at Moirans. Published in Le Petit Parisien on November 8th of that year, this print serves as a chilling reminder of the fragility of life and the unforeseen dangers that can lurk within our everyday routines. The scene depicted showcases the chaos and destruction that unfolded when a train traveling between Lyon and Grenoble derailed while ascending a steep slope near Moirans station. The impact was severe, resulting in numerous injuries to passengers aboard. Stretchers are seen scattered across the wreckage as brave rescuers work tirelessly to tend to those wounded. This lithograph not only captures an unfortunate moment but also highlights the power of journalism during this era. Newspapers like Le Petit Parisien played a crucial role in disseminating information about accidents such as these, raising awareness about safety concerns within transportation systems. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from over a century ago, let us reflect on how far we have come in terms of safety measures and technological advancements. This image serves as both a testament to human resilience and an important reminder to cherish each day with gratitude for our modern safeguards against such tragic events.
