The Glenrock train wreck is the worst train wreck in Wyoming history, killing 30. It happened on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad between Glenrock and Casper on September 23, 1923. (The nearest current community is Meadow Acres, lying west of the site, across the North Platte River). It occurred when the crack Casper to Denver train, only 15 miles into its journey, plunged into Cole Creek after the bridge spanning it had washed away after three days of storms.
