NJ Transit F40PH 4126 has a Near Hit in Hillsdale in HD

5th train of the day. NJ Transit EMD F40PH-2CAT 4126 arrives in Hillsdale with Pascack Valley Line Train number 1613. After the gates go down we see person number 1 duck under the gates to get to the platform. As the train nears the Hillsdale Ave Crossing, person number 2 stalls, then ducks under the gate. Thankfully person number 2 decides not to cross as the train crosses Hillsdale Ave 3 seconds after. Pretty scary thinking about what could have been. Alstom Comet V Cat Car 6072 is on the rear.

I don't think there's much doubt you saved her ass. If she had tripped or slipped, she was toast. Thank God you were there. Gave me quite a scare!

[BonesCentralRR]

@bluecomet390 Thanks! Yeah, she gave me quite a scare too!

Great video. NJT should really give you an award for caring about the individual that wasn't thinking.

@BonesCentralRR People are really stupid these days that person almost got crushed, but like other people have said that God that you were there to yell to get their attention.

Now, if she wasn't a shopaholic maybe she would have made it. Thank God she was.

I see stupidity like this all the time, and each time it infuriates me to no end. She would have been as good as dead if she actually went under the gates and onto the tracks, especially if she slipped.
