The Yaoundé train explosion was the catastrophic destruction of a tanker train hauling fuel oil through the capital of Cameroon, Yaoundé, which killed 120 people on February 14, 1998. The train was a regular industrial transportation service running from Cameroon''s oil fields along the Nigerian border to the capital Yaoundé, where it would either be processed at the Myvole plant, or shipped directly to the coast for exportation. As it entered Yaoundé''s suburbs in the mid-morning, it collided with another freight train heading south, and derailed close to the main petroleum depot on a very busy train intersection. Nobody was seriously hurt in the accident, but the tanker carriages were ruptured, and spilt fuel oil began to spread.
