Small Mistakes That Cost Millions To Fix
France’s Fuller Train – Wreck – $22.2 Billion
2,000 new trains were ordered by The French Railway Train Company in 2014 but they ended up being too wide to fit into the regional stations. Many of the stations were very old and had much smaller dimensions which weren’t taken into account.
The new trains cost $20 billion to produce and the cost was too much to scrap them, so they spent an additional $68 million to redesign the station platforms.
