Not at all. Train always wins - and that includes rarely getting much damage. People don't respect trains for the gigantic monsters they are. Trucks are little gnats, but people mistakenly think THEY are the giants.
Of course, this train could've also been traveling "slowly" - if really in Cleveland itself, and being freight, reducing the chance of any damage to the engine.
a train can only go left to right or right to left. It's not hard to understand it won't stop for you if you're STUPID or IMPATIENT. I have a line in my town that's very seldom used and to this day I still stop and check and I always watch for car build-up at the stop light so I'm not stuck over a track. Garunteed if that school bus driver did just that in Illnois years ago those kids would still be alive.
a lot of the industrial areas have many tracks and they are not always set up very good for a truck. there are many times you either have to stop on the tracks to keep from running stop signs into a major road. if there was heavy traffic coming the driver might not have been able to see the traffic till he got on the tracks. i can tell from other peoples comments they have no clue what they are talking about.
you are absolutely right. there ia an intersection like that in cherokee al. they finally made a by-pass s that trucks don't have to cross the tracks. you had to pull out in front of traffic, running the stop sign to avoid the manytrains that go past there. hard to cross there during quitting time.
Yeah, those idiots, who do they think they are, bringing us all the goods we use daily? I wish they'd fuck right off, it's not like anyone will miss their service. What are they good for anyway....?
truck stalled and wouldnt restart. And even if it an autoshift, youre supposed to put it in manual so it wont shift while crossing the tracks. Federal law prohibits even automatics from shifting while crossing the tracks
you are right also. i would also like to add that with all of this new technology which half of it doesn't work. ttrucks and cars are not as dependable as they used to be. our company had to give back their 2009 trucks because they couldn'y keep them out of the shops. one weekend we had 38 brand new trucks in the shop. i don't know what happened here but my truck has shut off beore and wouldn't restart. many things can make that happen.
There's no reason to stall over tracks. FMCSA rules forbid shifting gears over a railroad crossing. If a truck gets hit by a train, it's because the driver fucked up.
I guess tou're missing my point 302 boss.........I'm sure he would rather work in a iunion environment but in this overcrowded country we live in those "good" jobs haven't been available to you're typical american in over 25 years!I guess you have to look at it from my side,Union jobs are scarce cause most ppl want to be pampered and have security! Truck driving jobs are so available cause you have absolutely no representation behind you,Long hours,low pay,stress,,,I ask,HOW IS THAT RIGHT?
Here's the difference with a semi vs train wreck......If the truck driver was injured he would have to pay all his bills cause most carriers these days have horrible or no medical coverage,also he has no representation behind him,ie union environment,to help him through this difficult experiance! Now the locomotive operater will probably be catered to,bills all payed,including medical,time off of work,and made feel comfortable with his experiance! NOW I SAY.....HOW IS THAT RIGHT?
wow youre a real, honest to god 100% moron. I drive a damn truck, my dad is a norfolk employee, I know the rail road is actually a better over all job. But I LIKE driving trucks. I am happy where the grass isnt greener, your want more fair, go to where the grass is greener, but dont bitch about it. You wanna how that is right, well this is how. I choose to drive a truck, not a train. The engineers choose to drive a train, not a truck Its called freedom of choice. Its simple, and its fair.
it takes a train a half of mile or more to stop depeding on train! you see then in distant, and they will be there really soon its not like a stop in 20 seconds
"the trains will never lose a battle between any kind of vihicle"
Depends on what you mean by 'lose'. If you are talking about coming away with more damange on impact, no, the locomotive certainly will not 'lose'...but vehicles and trucks have been known to cause derailments, and derailments are most assuredly a loss- to the locomotive, the crew, the railroad, and sometimes the community itself when there's property damage.
People don't understand what a difficult and dangerous job it is to sit up in that cab and be a railroader. They probably think the guy or gal just sits up there and owns the world.
Ask anyone who's ever "been there"- those machines are more vulnerable than you think.

Truckers, if you must stop, stop BEFORE tracks.
When you can cross, have enough momentum so that you can cross and clear if your engine fails.
(Difficult to believe the engine failed.)
Did trucker stop behind other vehicles ahead, trapping himself on the tracks?)

OkieRailroader1988 3 years ago
The truck driver made a choice to work in a non union environment. His/her choice.
The railroad employee chose a job with a huge company that offered medical coverage. Union or non-union. Not all railroads are union.
How is it right? Both employees made choices in their lives that led to their pay rate and benifits.
That is the society we live in within these 50 states.
