@ShadowsHideBlades that was a passenger train and it was going very very slow. most trains that hit vehicles are mile long frieght trains doing around 60 mph. the amount of momentum pushing the train is tremendous. as well as this being staged they werent going very fast so the engineer was able to start stopping the train in time because he was able to expect it. and lastly it was only 3 passenger cars which means less momentum and more braking power.
At least people kept a distance. I've seen similar (but unstaged videos) and people are like 10 feet from the tracks, like there's no chance of flying debris or something.
@robertgift the simple fact is there are tons of americans today that are not only too stupid to realize what will happen but too self absorbed to realize there is anyone else in this world besides themselves, thus resulting in only paying attention to themselves, its a sad fact, but it takes seeing these sort of things to bring some of this brain dead society back to reality
@bigbadbronco86 No, 86. People know what will happen if they are hit by a train.
The real issue, completely missed here, is vehicles ahead stopping and the driver forced to stop on the track. Often s/he can't back up because of vehicles behind.
Then there are morons, often Darwin Award winners, who try to beat trains. The only way to stop these idiots is with four-quadrant gates. (They are not worth it.)
@robertgift i think youre missing my point though, regardless of how smart you or i would like to think that we are, the simple fact of the matter is that for every genius like us there are fifteen more darwin award winners running around. also as much as you dont want to admit it, one of these winners actually benefitted from this video even though to the rest of normal society its common sense. its a worn out saying but common sense isnt so common after all
@bigbadbronco86 I understand your point. I'm a driver destructor.
99% of people are smart enough. They understand the obvious tremendous unyielding impact forces. (No doubt why many were here to watch it!)
I have shown photos and videos of train/vehicle collisions.
Similar to when drivers get halted in an intersection, the signal changes and they are blocking cross-traffic. Except that if the cross-traffic is a train, it cannot stop in time. Many real photos exist. No need for this.
well it can be funny from certain points of view as for some strange reason humans happen to think the destruction of thing like this is funny even to think that if bodies were inside how terrible a trajedy it is. I would be laughing in aw though because that is just so cool!
maybe, however several hundred people a year are killed at grade crossings in the USA every year when they try do beat the train.
the point of this is to show you that 2500lbs of car WILL NOT stand up to 250,000,000 lbs of train travelling at speed. if a train his you its good night vienna, lights out YOU ARE DEAD!
That was really cool but the sad part is that it seems as though no one got the point behind that. Everyone was laughing and saying "oh cool!" and they completely missed the point behind it: Don't mess with the train, it ALWAYS wins.
The local Boy Scout Troop built and installed two 'crash test dummies' in the front seat; the County EMS service extracted what was left after the impact (one 'dummy' was ejected); the local police department handled crowd control and parking. A superior community effort. Zero damage to the train.
Lots of laughing, yes, but very effective. Most of the audience was there under Court Order, in lieu of driving school, and 99% of those were 16-18 year olds. The City Judge requested and demonstration and sentenced as may juvenile offenders as possible to attend. Plenty of nervous laughter, I admit, but since that time, not a single car vs. train incident in the town limits. The local wrecker service provided the target car; the Nashville & Eastern RR provided the train.
Ummmm... Its just a train and junk car used for a DEMONSTRATION. I hope you care about people more than these 2 objects. Over 150 people were cited by the local police for STOPPING ON THE TRACKS in a 3 month time span.
After seeing this, most of them will not do that any more. And as for hurling all the insults, Im only the person who recorded the video and posted for all to see. If you don't like it don't watch! And please, forward all complaints to CSX. They owned the train and the tracks.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wow you all are a bunch of fucking idiots. Do you have any Idea how much it costs to repair a locomotiev after it plows through a car? It may not seem like 2 tons vs 350 tons is much but dumbasses like yourself cost the whole idustry alot of money and dangerous repairwork just because you had a broken down car that you were to cheap to recycle. I hope you retards never kill an inocent engineer with dibre fly off of something you dropped on the track. Morons.
It's to teach the morons (like you maybe) what can happen when you try to cross to closely. Some people (like you maybe) need to see it in-person before it occurs to you what can REALLY happen. It's called a demonstration for a reason. By the way, it's debris, not dibre.
I bet the railroad would rather spend the money to teach those people not to stop on the tracks or go around the gates then have to spend the money of repairing the locomotive more then one time cause people where not educated about what could happen. what is the greater good spend money trying to save lives, or spending money over and over cause some idiot was killed getting hit by a train in his car?
It is federally regulated by the Federal Railroad administration. There is a required sequence...... two long, one short, and then one long as the engines near the crossing. Of course when there is someone on or near the crossing we do whatever we can to alert the morons!
It is standard procedure for trains to honk while approaching crossings... Also, regardless if it's staged or not, they're doing it for traffic school. They're showing you how it would work out from getting the fuck out of your car (if that's the case) or the train honking to let you know it's gonna crush your skull.
Did these people invite some freinds over and get some beer. Then park their used car on the tracks? It appears that is the case. No camrea crew, safty ropes. Nothing you normaly see in a staged crash.
He probably was. If it was real it would've been a hell of alot worse than this. Trains can't stop on a dime. It takes a train its entire length to stop.
A train hitting a car is like a bug hitting your windshield. Almost anything a train locomotive hits bounces off it with almost no damage to the engine. Your talking about tons and tons of steel on the largest man made moving objects. A tie racing a train to a grade crossing-- You lose period!
I dont see why your comment got thumbs downed so much. We love seeing trains (not full of people) run junk over, that why this vid has so many views:P
rofl.. ok we know it's staged, but i wonder if those red necks just put the car there and recorded it.... cause the way the train driver keep his horn on makes u think he didn't know wat was going on
Guys don't you understand? This is part of a driver's ed program to get through to teens. Nothing gets the message across to stubborn/ignorant kids like this kind of demo.
NOW THEY WILL NEVER TRY TO BEAT A TRAIN ACROSS THE RAILWAY! mission accomplished!
Wow. I'd hate to be on the business end of that thing.lol The car went about, what 65-70 feet? Of course this is going to be funny. No one was gonna get hurt doing this. At least I certainly hope not. Who doesn't like seeing a car get smashed to bits?
Ok thats major bullshit, i'm sure it was not even a staged test, that particular engine used to be in amtrak service here on the west coast for the pacific surfliner, and this is where it went? it went through all that hard work to be fucked around with?
OK... Why is this BS? I'm sure you haven't a clue. This was a staged test. Read the description and my other replies. The rail line belongs to CSX. The train that runs on this track is the Music City Star. They used this engine with the MCS cars because they didn't want to damage the engine that normally pulls the cars.
it runs on old Tennessee Central lines which is now Nashville&Eastern they use this loco as well they have 4 and they r now puttin in an additional route im not sure where as of yet
are you a tard? just cuz it "did good work" dont mean when its out of service they dont use it for shit like this, tell me would you put this train in a musium just cuz it moved a few hundred passengers?
The trailing car has a "control cab" from which the train can be driven the other direction. My guess is that for safety purposes, the train crew was in that cab, in effect with the train n reverse, and the other car was a buffer also for safety purposes.
nah, the crew was most likely in the cab. The car does minimal damage to the locomotives and the crew is sitting roughly 10 feet above the ground so their not in harms way.
We hit a vehicle (not staged) at roughly 50mph and we were fine, the car was fucked but the crew and locomotive were fine.
He pulled up quick tho

Chatzi473 3 years ago
I estimate repair cost for the loco at less tham 5k. Not much at all. Not sure why the repair itself would be 'dangerous'.
And of course broken down before or after the staged accident, the scrap steel in the auto weighs the same. No loss there.
This test was undoubtedly done with the railroad's approval who in turn wrote it off on taxes. So....I'm pretty sure the railroad came out fine.
Not sure what "dibre" is, but I sure hope I'm not struck by any the next time I'm running.

Why did they leave the carriages on the train? If it had derailed the train then it would be a much costlier accident

The trailing car has a "control cab" from which the train can be driven the other direction. My guess is that for safety purposes, the train crew was in that cab, in effect with the train n reverse, and the other car was a buffer also for safety purposes.

nah, the crew was most likely in the cab. The car does minimal damage to the locomotives and the crew is sitting roughly 10 feet above the ground so their not in harms way.
We hit a vehicle (not staged) at roughly 50mph and we were fine, the car was fucked but the crew and locomotive were fine.

Really? I would have thought it was remotely operated incase it derailed. Learn something new every day :P

Guys, calm down, the train conductor blew the horn to perfectly re-create the situation, so that the students could see a 100% "real" accident.
