We had the Boeing airmax 8 planes falling out of the sky back in 2019.

And the train crashes a couple of years ago.

Plane crashes are capturing the news cycle so we hear about every one in detail.

Yea the train crashes are fairly normal, but i think it was the cargo that had everyone noticing. They were not passanger trains. Nothing captivates the imagination like transportation you regularly use.
