Summary[edit]

Description
English: Collage of two photos of the 1895 accident at the Montparnasse train station

Reproduction of the text at the source:

"The Gare Montparnasse became famous for a derailment on 22 October 1895 of the Granville-Paris Express that overran the buffer stop.
The engine reeled across almost 30 m (98 ft) of the station forecourt, rammed through a 60-cm (24 in) thick wall, shot across a terrace, and sailed out of the station, tumbling onto the Place de Rennes 10 m (33 ft) below, where it stood on its nose.
All on board the train made it, five sustaining injuries (out of 131); however, one woman on the street below was killed by falling masonry. A faulty brake caused the accident and the engine drivers who were trying to make up for lost time. A conductor incurred a 25 franc penalty and the engine driver a 50 franc penalty."
Date Original photographs: October 1895, taken possibly in the days following the accident

Licensing[edit]

Public domain
This work is in the public domain in France for one of the following reasons:
  • Its author (or the last of its authors in the case of a collaboration work) died more than 70 years ago (CPI art. L123-1) and did not benefit from any copyright extension (CPI art. L123-8, L123-9 and L123-10)[1];
  • It is an anonymous or pseudonymous work (the identity of the author has never been disclosed) or a collective work[2] and more than 70 years have passed since its publication (CPI art. L123-3);
  • It is the recording of an audiovisual or musical work already in the public domain, and more than 50 years have passed since the performance or the recording (CPI art. L211-4).
Please note that moral rights still apply when the work is in the public domain. They encompass, among others, the right to the respect of the author's name, quality and work (CPI art. L121-1). Attribution therefore remains mandatory.
  1. ↑ Copyright extensions must be considered only in the case of musical works and of authors Mort pour la France (died during conflict, in the service of France). In other cases, they are included in the 70 years post mortem auctoris length (see this statement of the Cour de Cassation).
  2. ↑ The collective work status is quite restrictive, please make sure that it is actually established.
