In January 1977, a regular commuter train near Sydney became the scene of Australia’s deadliest rail disaster. When the Bold Street Bridge collapsed onto two carriages during rush hour, 84 lives were lost in an instant, and over 200 more were injured. In this episode, we revisit the Granville Rail Disaster, a tragic event that exposed cracks in Australia’s rail infrastructure and changed safety policy forever.
