The Woodbridge train wreck occurred on February 6, 1951 in Woodbridge, New Jersey when a train derailed crossing a temporary wooden trestle, killing 85 people. It is the third worst train disaster in American history, and the deadliest since 1918. At 5.10 pm on a cold drizzly evening, Pennsylvania Railroad train number 733 (called 'The Broker' as many of its passengers were stockbrokers on Wall Street) began its journey from Exchange Place in Jersey City. It provided an express service to Bay Head via the North Jersey Coast Line and was especially crowded that day due to a strike on the nearby Jersey Central Railroad and carried 1100 passengers in eleven cars hauled by PRR K4s 4-6-2 steam locomotive 2445.
