On August 17, 1949, when Japan was still beset by post-World War II chaos, a train derailment occurred near Matsukawa Station in Fukushima Prefecture, resulting in three fatalities.
Dubbed as the 'Matsukawa Incident', it stood out as one of the train-related mishaps, casting a shadow of doubt over the labor unions and the Japanese Communist Party.
