On October 2, 1972, an ATC failure caused the “Fremont Flyer” to run off the end of the elevated track at the Fremont station and crash to the ground. Four people on-board were injured. The incident drew national and international attention, followed a month later by release of the "Post Report" on BART safety by the legislative analyst for the California State Senate.
