What is the chance of a train crash?

The odds of a passenger being killed on any one flight are approximately 8 million to one.

From PlaneCrashInfo.com: "If a passenger boarded a flight at random, once a day, everyday, it would statistically be over 21,000 years before he or she would be killed."

There are many ways to analyze the statistics, which can be found at the links below.

More information:

The odds of a plane crash depend on a various amount of factors, such as:

  • The type of plane
  • The size of the plane
  • The pilot
  • The time of year
  • The weather

Typically, most plane crashes occur during takeoff and landing. Most plane crashes happen in the months of September and December. Car accidents kill more people each year than the total amount of people killed in plane crashes. Large planes tend to be safer than smaller ones. Most plane crash survivors were sitting in the rear half.The odds of being killed in a plane crash are about 1 in 11 million. There is 1 in 3 chance of living if your plane crashed.

With all these facts considered, it is impossible to calculate the odds of a plane crash. Remember, it is a very rare occurance.

If you or someone you know is worried about plane crashes, show them these facts above; and take the following precautions:

  • Always take direct flights. Since most plane crashes occur during takeoff and landing, reducing the amount of times you have to get on and off a plane is a good idea. When it is not possible to do so, find something with the fewest stops possible.
  • Many crashes are caused by bad weather. For example, flying during peak thunderstorm times (late evening in the summer) should be avoided. Flying at night is no safer than flying in the day.
  • Try to get a seat in the rear half. If you cannot, sit in your assigned seat and after the flight attendants do the announcements, check to see if there are any free seats in the rear half. If there are are none, see if you can trade.

When was the Manchester to Liverpool Railway built?

The inaugural train of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway travelled on 15th September, 1830, drawn by the locomotive 'Northumbrian'. It carried many notable people including the then Prime Minister, the Duke of Wellington. Another passenger was William Huskisson, member of Parliament for Liverpool. When the train stopped at Parkside for other locomotives to pass in review on the other line, Huskisson was run over by the locomotive 'Rocket' (which had won the Rainhill trials for Robert Stephenson), and died of his injuries later the same day. A memorial to him still stands by the line. The Liverpool and Manchester railway was the first public transport system wholly to use steam power.

Where do you transfer from the D train to get to 34th Street?

I am confused by your question, because the D train (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line) does not stop at 79th Street. It's an express train, and it runs straight from 59th Street-Columbus Circle to 125th Street.

The other thing I'm confused by is what you're actually asking: "where do I transfer?" You transfer from one train to another inside the station. I would think you would understand that already.

The only train that stops at 79th Street is the 1 train (of the 1-2-3, the red line) at West 79th Street and Broadway. And it is the only train that stops at that station. There is no other train to transfer to.

If you are sure that you're supposed to be taking the Dtrain, then: take the D train to 7th Avenue-53rd Street. Transfer there to the Uptown (Queens-bound) E train (of the A-C-E, the blue line). Take the E train 2 stops to 53rd Street-Lexington Avenue. This station is connected to the 51st Street Station on the 6 train (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line). Take the Downtown 6 to 14th Street-Union Square.
