We’re releasing episodes from our mini failure library while we’re on production hiatus.

This week’s Mini Failure is about the Gretna Rail Disaster. Too many trains, some of them knowingly unsafe, water cooler chatter about the war, and an unofficial shift change led to the the worst rail disaster in British history.

Original Air Date: September 4, 2022
