Gretna Rail Disaster Memorial, Rosebank Cemetery
Memorial to 214 soldiers who were victims of Britain's worst railway accident which claimed the lives of 227 in all. On 22 May, 1915 two trains travelling north and one train travelling south crashed at Quintinshill in the Scottish Borders (about 20 miles south of Lockerbie, decades later the site of Britain's worst ever air disaster). A local train had been stopped to allow a northbound express to pass. The train had reversed from the down to the up line where it stood in the way of southbound traffic. Signalling staff then gave a heavily-laden troop train the "all-clear" to proceed southwards. It struck the local train at almost full speed and was telescoped into half its length by the impact. To make matters worse, the northbound express from London Euston ploughed into the wreckage. All but 9 of the fatalities were on the troop train which was incinerated by intense fire as a result of its antiquated gas lighting. Many bodies could not be recovered. Most who perished were soldiers of the 7th Battalion Royal Scots, entrained for Liverpool and bound for Gallipoli after volunteering from the Leith and Musselburgh areas. Two of the signalmen responsible for the disaster were tried at the High Court in Edinburgh, found guilty of manslaughter and received relatively short prison sentences (3 years and 18 months).
