We have too many. On average, over 1,000 train derailments occur annually in the United States, according to federal data. From 1990 to 2021, the average number of train derailments per year was 1,705. In 2022, there were 1,259 recorded derailments , and in 2021, there were 1,087 derailments. The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) reported 742 derailments by October 2023. While derailments are the most common type of train accident, accounting for 61% of all train accidents , they are not always major disasters; most do not result in extensive damage, injuries, or fatalities.
