as posted by the channelThe History Guy remembers the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus Train Wreck of 1918, the deadliest circus train wreck in United States history. It took place near Hammond, Indiana.
The History Guy uses images that are in the Public Domain. As photos of actual events are sometimes not available, I will often use photographs of similar events and objects for illustration.
The episode includes period photographs of train accidents. While there are no crass photos of death, the content might be disturbing for some viewers.
