WOW what an idiot truck driver. The truck was like a fly on the wall and the train was the fly swatter "splat". It takes at least two football fields to stop a fully loaded train.
@DMagers what they mean is that it takes the length of several football fields for them to stop. With that much momentum a train cannot stop in 30 feet while going 50 mph like a car, they take a few dozen miles depending on how much weight they are pulling.
@xm377Moyocoyatzin Duh,,,, If you read the original comment it said "it takes several football fields to stop the train." I know it takes a long distance to stop, but that's not what the sentence said. It's a joke, son...
@kennethrobinson11231 doesnt matter the crossing lights were flashing i could hear the bell going off on them as well as the locomotive bell its up to the motorist to get the hell off the tracks
@RerailMe You GORMLESS jerk - do you think the train runs on rubber tyres!? Talk about gene pool - more like gene puddle in your case. What hope is there for us when there's morons like you around??!!
@telmas Hey asswipe, if you noticed on the vid, the engineer could have seen the truck from a distance and tried to stop the train or make it slow enough to not crash so hard into it. AND...the train maintained the same velocity until the truck was hit. Once he hit the truck,..THEN..he decides to put the brakes. I know it takes time to stop. Look how fast the train stopped after he struck the truck....if we wanted to, he could have put the brake as soon he saw it from the distance.
@RerailMe LOL D'ya know, the more you write the more ignorance you display! I've been driving trains for 25+ years and you know NOTHING!! All you see is a train hove into view in the clip two engine lengths! He may have just come round a bend or been braking from a much higher speed for a considerable distance! Jerks like you make these crass comments without the faintest knowledge of railway operation. Keep to ya models. More in keeping with ya brain size!!
@RerailMe Subterfuge (go look it up) can't help ya now jerky. The more ya write, the stupider ya look. The situation ain't changed, YOU KNOW NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go play with ya toy trains LMAO
@RerailMe When you see vehicles on the track from a distance you do not put on the brakes (unless you suspect the vehicle is trapped or abandoned). If you did that, you would never make it anywhere. You are trained to just keep going. That is basically the way railroads operate around the world.
If I applied the brakes every time a vehicle pulled in front of me or did something stupid, I would be constantly on the brakes. Fortunately what you see here is fairly rare.
Train: Move it Move It!!! Truck: I cant ;( im too happy to move Train: Well move it or u will be sad1!!! Truck:No i will not move Train: O ye??? DIE MOTHA FUCKER **BLAM**
It's strange that you can hear everything as they collide and the train engineer never thought to blow his horn. I know maybe it wouldn't matter, however he should have blown his horn anyway.
@Donincal: Think before you write. Think about it old fart, the video clip starts 3 seconds before the crash. Yeah blow the horn 3 seconds before the inevitable.
@lkfh Know what 's up before you eat your foot. This is the short video. The train had time to hit the horn and did not. It might not of made a big difference but the engineer should have laid on the horn right through the crash? Why didn't he? Wake up sleepy head. The rules of the rail or very clear. Put down the pipe and take off the head phones. You driving t a train.
i notice thing the train horn was NOT BLOWING AT THE TIME HE WAS GOING OVER THE CROSSING. so i think the engineer ducked below the controls at this point. do i blame him? no not at all. stupid truck driver does not know what a freight train is. so he decided to play smokey and the bandit on the train tracks. he is now the only truck driver i know with a freight train stuck up his ass.
The important thing to observe in this and all videos of railroad crossing accidents is that the train is moving with such a powerful momentum, that the truck doesn't slow it down a bit. It takes less energy to accelerate a semi from 0 to 40 in an instant than it does to slow a freight train, even a little bit.
If you look closely it is a four gate crossing. Meaning the gates directly in the travel lanes close first and then the second pair close to keep people from driving around. It looked as if the truck bypassed the first set and was driving across when the second set tried to close. Look ma I think I can (NOT)
More brakes? Come on, this is scary that someone would post that. A single locomotive weighs something like 140 to 220 tons. That is ONE LOCOMOTIVE! A loaded hopper car has 100 tons of coal in it, and there are usually 60 to 120 cars per train! How about this. Don't be a dumbass and pull out in front of a train. Look, Listen, and Live
unless they plan on using some sort of retrorocket on every car on the train it is doubtful that any train on modern rail road tracks will ever stop much faster weighing as much as they do. You could always say put down more wheels and brakes, but that won't help. Say they did manage to get trains enough grip to stop faster. Better redesign the tracks then cause the train will destroy them trying to stop and would just end up a smoldering heap on the side of the track.
Do you have any idea how much energy it takes to stop something that massive? If you did miraculously create something that would stop the train on a dime, it would likely turn all the cargo, crew and passengers to paste with the sudden decelleration.
The truck should not have been in the crossing. Even if the crossing is not active yet, if it takes longer than 5 seconds to clear a crossing you need to choose another route.
im sorry truck drives do this all the time, they always want to beat the train and gets hit for it. My uncle is a truck driver and he drives well but he knows a guy who tryed to beat a train and payed the price for it. Fucking idiots.
My friend BJ was the person who recorded this. He is a avid railfan, this was jacked from his YouTube site shortly after he uploaded it. He started recording right after the train blew its horn, and the train was already in emergancy stop mode. The truck was already going across the tracks when the gates started coming down, traping the driver. This video was shot in Salisbury, NC, just north of the station, at a place called the Salisbury Wye by local railfans. Just telling the facts
Driver may have panicked trying to get the truck across the tracks as the lights started flashing and stalled it. Meanwhile the gates are coming down and he hears the horn (before the film starts) this causes more panic and he stalls it again letting the clutch out. Now it is too late as he finally restarts and gets moving. Driving a rig isn't as easy as it looks.You just don't step on the fuel and go. Don't get me wrong, he definitely screwed up, but I'm only offering a possible explanation.
i dont know about you but if i were the driver of that train i would have put on the emergency break and got the hell back as fast as i could. So i think that may explain the horn not sounding. as for the camera... well yeah seems a bit odd. even if it was an enthusiast i would have thought he would zoom in or you would hear him say something at the time of impact.
I dunno. After all its a truck driver we're talking about. Maybe if the crossing signals were made over to look like breasts and the lights could be where the nipples would be, maybe then truckers would want to stop to watch them.
Trains unlike trucks and cars, cannot stop as quick! If you see a gate drop or lights flash, you better get the heck out of the way, or this will happen to you. We speed up going to crossings! Most trains locally go about 5-10 mph, which can do a lot of damage! Believe it or not - that engineer did not feel a thing, and train is NOT damaged!
under normal braking and at that speed it takes about a mile and a half to safely stop. That train was put into "Emergency braking" thats the same as if you slamed on the brakes and pulled the parking brake in your car. only diffrence is this train is a few million pounds more than your ride..LOL

Because he was probably on the floor after "big holing" it!
DH7409 3 years ago
Thanks DH.
I thought the horn automatically sounded when train was placed into emergency.
Yes, I would watch just up to impact, then duck.
And the horn should not have mattered, anyway.
The crossing is already well protected by advance (RXR) sign, crossbuck sign, flashing lights, lowered gates and ringing bells.
What more warning does one need?
robertgift 3 years ago
Horns do not automatically sound when trains go into emergency.
I am not certain, but this crossing appears to be a double gated no blow crossing. Again, I cannot tell from the video for sure.

Your analogy on pulling the parking break as you slammed down on the pedal is also wrong.
Emergency just means the engineer dumped all the air all at once and the brakes fully applied.

You are right!
It IS a full quadrant gated grade crossing.
Thank you. I did not look before.
If not near residences, I would still expect the horn to be sounded.
Otherwise, there is no need to not sound the horn.
Also, an engineer may sound the horn in a quite zone if needed.
So I do not undertsand what is happening here.
Nonetheless, horn is not needed with those good signals and gates.
