The Sa Pereira accident was a train wreck in the city of Sa Pereira in Santa Fe Province which occurred on 25 February 1978, when a long-distance passenger train operated by Ferrocarriles Argentinos crashed into a truck at a level crossing between the General Mitre Railway and RN 19 in Sa Pereira.

Leaving 55 people dead, it was the worst rail tragedy in the province of Santa Fe,[1] and the second-deadliest accident in the history of rail transport in Argentina, after the Benavídez rail disaster of 1970 which left 236 dead.[2]
