The El Ayyat train disaster happened at 02:00 on the morning of 20 February 2002 in an eleven-carriage passenger train travelling from Cairo to Luxor.
 A cooking gas cylinder exploded in the fifth carriage, creating a fire which engulfed seven third-class carriages, reducing them almost to cinders.
 The initial number of dead given by officials at the time was 383, all Egyptians.
 However, considering that seven carriages were burnt to the ground, and each carriage was packed with at least double the maximum carrying capacity of 150, this number is considered by many people to be a great underestimate.
 The dubious nature of the given death toll lies with the absence of a full passenger list; accounting for those missing was almost impossible at the time.
 In addition, the fire was so intense and the carriages so badly burned that many corpses had been reduced to ash.
 As there was no means of communication between the driver and the rear carriages, the driver did not know of the fire until about two hours after it had begun, resulting in many people, attempting to flee from the overcrowded carriages, jumping to their death.
 Some important Egyptians have commentated that the official number of 383 dead is grossly inaccurate and was an attempt to lessen the damage done to the reputation of the government.
 Many people consider a number of about 1000 deaths to be more accurate.
Marula is a small village and railway station on the railway line and the A7 road between Bulawayo and Plumtree, located 75 km from Bulawayo.
 Because of its location on the railway line, Marula started as a social and religious centre for the surrounding farms in the early colonial period, following the eviction of the Kalanga people from the area by the British South Africa Company.
After its incorporation in 1928 the town's population teetered in and around 300, until about 1974 when the town discovered that they were to receive the Poplar River Power Project.
 This project brought many new citizens to the town to help with the building and operation of the Power Plant.
 The Poplar River Power Plant can be seen from a distance with the large smoke stack extending above the town.
 With the Poplar River Power Project also came the development of the Coronach Coal Mine, which provides the coal/fuel to the Power Plant.
 The Coal mine has had a few locations and a variety of owners; it is currently owned by Westmoreland Coal Company.
 Many people that visit the area enjoy touring the mine, where they can experience the immense size of the draglines as they dig down to uncover the coal.
 The coal will eventually be loaded onto the train and hauled over to the Power Plant, which is also a popular site to tour.
The Marula mine is a large open pit mine located in the north-western part of South Africa in North West.
 Marula represents one of the largest platinum reserves in South Africa having estimated reserves of 10.3 million oz of platinum.
 The mine produces around 100,000 oz of platinum/year.
The Franklin-Creighton Mine was a Georgia Gold Rush gold mine located off what is now Yellow Creek Road in the town of Ball Ground in Cherokee County, Georgia.
 The mine, located along the Etowah River, was initially known as the Franklin Mine because it was started by a widow, Mrs. Mary G. Franklin, who obtained a 40 acre lot in the Gold Lottery of 1832.
 Around 1883, the mine became known as the Creighton Mine or the Franklin-Creighton Mine.
 This mine was one of the most productive and continued to operate many years after other area mines had ceased operations.
 Some estimate that it was yielding $1000 per day in 1893 and others place its total production after 1880 at as much as $1,000,000.
 The mine was shut down in 1913 as a result of a collapsed shaft which caused the mine to flood.
The Rupa Gold mine of Karamoja, Uganda is an artisanal (informal) mine located approximately 10 km north of Moroto Town in Uganda’s Karamoja region.
 After years of instability caused by inter-clan cattle raiding and a decade-long military disarmament campaign in Karamoja, many people in the region have been finding alternatives to their traditional semi-nomadic pastoralist lifestyles.
 One such alternative is mining.
Route 785 is a 68.8 km long mostly north-south secondary highway in the southwestern portion of New Brunswick, Canada.
 Locally, this road may be known as either the "Shin Crick Road" or the "Mine Road".
 In the early 1980s, a mine was established off Route 785, at Mount Pleasant.
 Today, Adex Mining holds a mineral claim on the mine however the mine is currently in an idle state.
 As a result of mine development at Mount Pleasant, Route 785 was heavily developed and rerouted from the original stage coach trail.
 Another name for the road is the "Sheldon Lee Highway", a satirical reference to former New Brunswick Minister of Transportation, Hon. Sheldon Lee, who continued developed the road during his terms in office, especially on the portion of road north of Mount Pleasant.
 Mr. Lee lived in the community of Bonny River, which is located near the southern end of Route 785, and likely many people today, frequently used the Route 785 for travel to Fredericton from the St. George area.
 Today, the road is heavily used by forest operations.
South Africa, officially the Republic of South Africa (RSA), is the southernmost country in Africa.
 It is bounded on the south by 2,798 km of coastline of Southern Africa stretching along the South Atlantic and Indian Oceans; on the north by the neighbouring countries of Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe; and on the east and northeast by Mozambique and Swaziland; and surrounds the kingdom of Lesotho.
 South Africa is the 25th-largest country in the world by land area, with close to 56 million people, is the world's 24th-most populous nation and the largest in Southern Africa.
 It is the southernmost country on the mainland of the Old World or the Eastern Hemisphere.
 About 80 percent of South Africans are of Sub-Saharan African ancestry, divided among a variety of ethnic groups speaking different Bantu languages, nine of which have official status.
 The remaining population consists of Africa's largest communities of European (white), Asian (Indian), and multiracial (coloured) ancestry.
The Niles Canyon ghost story is the Northern California variation on the vanishing hitchhiker archetype.
 There are many different variations of this story depending on whom you ask.
 All stories include a girl being involved in some sort of motorized vehicle accident on February 26 (year often changed).
 One variation of the story includes a girl being involved in a car crash on Niles Canyon road (off the 680 freeway in Sunol, California) on the way to her prom.
 The girl died on impact and to this day is said to haunt Niles Canyon road every February 26.
 The tale of the haunting goes that people traveling along Niles Canyon road (now Highway 84) on the night of February 26 will see a normal-looking high school-aged girl walking along the road in a prom dress (many people have said it is white).
 People traveling along the road (mostly those traveling alone) have said to have stopped and offered the girl a ride.
 She accepts the ride, giving the driver an address across the bridge (either Dumbarton or Bay Bridge depending on the storyteller).
 Once the driver gets to the beginning of the bridge, the girl will disappear.
 Sometimes people have gone to the address to find that a girl many years ago matching that description once lived there.
 Today, many people will travel along this treacherous pitch black road in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the Niles Canyon ghost.
Winter Quarters is a ghost town in Carbon County, Utah, United States.
 Coal was discovered in the area in 1875, and later that year, the Pleasant Valley Coal Company began coal mining operations.
 A group of coal miners were delayed during an early winter storm in 1877, which led to the town's name of Winter Quarters.
 On May 1, 1900, an explosion in the Winter Quarters Number Four mine killed 200 miners.
 Despite the mine explosion, the coal mining operations remained active until 1922, when the opening of a new mine in Castle Gate caused many people to relocate there.
 By 1930, Winter Quarters was abandoned.
