Best Answer

UNSTOPPABLE is loosely based on the "Crazy Eights" unmanned train incident in 2001 that took place in Northwest Ohio. The train rumbled on a 66-mile journey with no one at the controls, due to the air brake not being applied correctly. For two hours, the train sailed along at speeds up to 47 miles per hour.
