The following events occurred in September 1957:
September 1, 1957 (Sunday)
[edit]- Apparently because a stopcock in the brake line was accidentally bumped by a coupler, the brakes failed on a heavily loaded 12-car church excursion train returning from Montego Bay to Kingston, British Jamaica. The crew failed to detect and act on the problem until the train ran away and derailed on a curve at Kendal. Five cars rolled into a ditch and two became wedged in a narrow cutting; 179 people were killed, and hundreds injured.[1][2]
- Born: Gloria Estefan (born Gloria María Milagrosa Fajardo García), Cuban-born American singer; in Havana[3]
- Died: Dennis Brain, 36, English French horn player, died in a traffic collision.[4]
September 2, 1957 (Monday)
