The Kaprun disaster was a fire that occurred in an ascending train in the tunnel of the Gletscherbahn Kaprun 2 funicular in Kaprun, Austria, on 11 November 2000. The disaster killed 155 people . There were 12 survivors. Most of the victims were skiers on their way to the Kitzsteinhorn Glaciers. The fire was traced to an electric fan heater that overheated and caught fire, severing a number of plastic pipes carrying flammable hydraulic fluid.
