Re: Montparnasse--
I don't have a photo, but there was a similar accident in Dublin. The Dublin and Southeastern Railway (much of whose right of way is now used by the "Luas" (*) light rail, had a stunned terminal on the south side of St. Stephen's Green (a park very close to the centre of Dublin, just south of the Trinity College campus), and a train over-ran the bumpers, with the locomotive ending up poking through the wall.

Some pictures from a 1935 edition of Railroad Stories.
