The Hinton train collision occurred on February 8, 1986, near Hinton, Alberta, Canada. It was a head-on collision between a VIA Rail Supercontinental passenger train and a Canadian National Railway (CNR) freight train. The freight train failed to stop at a red signal and entered a single-track section, where it collided with the passenger train. Investigations later determined that human error was a major factor. The freight train's crew was found to have ignored signals, and fatigue was suspect
