Union Pacific RailRoad 1940's film "Look Listen and Live" - car safety at railroad crossings

I remember that I saw khan rd crossing had the old black 2 tracks sign but it got replaced

i love trains

That crash scene at 1:21 looks more like the train had fallen off a damaged trestle or collided with another train instead of merely hitting a truck on the tracks!

(4:40) Yep, that's pretty much what happened to the train in "Super 8!" Except it doesn't tell you that the train crew died (but it is obvious they were killed, while the driver was not.)

"I told you there's no train due at..." CRASH.

What world do these people live in where trains are always on-schedule?

Even after all this time people still get this one wrong. Maybe in another sevnty years we'll pu senseless deaths from racing the train behind us...
