The Whistler Train Wreck is a popular, low elevation hike in Whistler. The short trail takes you to the site of a historic train wreck that happened in 1956.
In 2016, a suspension bridge was built over the Cheakamus River, making this an easy hike. Before that, the train wreck was a lot harder to access (requiring illegally crossing train tracks). The area has gained a lot of popularity since the bridge was put in.
The boxcars have been here since the accident occurred, and have since been brightly covered in graffiti. They make a unique sight, contrasting with the natural environment, making them an art gallery of sorts. The area is popular for hikers, photographers, graffiti artists, and mountain bikers.

was biking up griffith park blvd today when an ambulance blared past me towards hyperion. i biked over and here was this pretty bad looking wreck. i didn't find out what happened exactly and kept biking up hyperion only to find...
In 1902 the dry dock was being towed from London, England to Durban, SA when it broke free during a storm and washed up along the Garden Route coast. It's pretty much only accessible during low tides, walking about 45 minutes from Glentana.
32 years on and, other than the memories, this is all that remains of the trawler "Admiral Van Tromp" that ran aground in heavy fog and seas sadly resulting in the loss of 2 lives.

One of a number of wrecked boats moored at Benfleet close to Benfleet railway station. Taken with a 35mm zoom compact I bought cheaply on eBay.
the main gov tried to sell this land to some guys from the uk without letting the Barbuda council know about it. A mob came and pitched this truck containing fencing material off the cliff. The hotel was never built.
