[bcnewsvideo]

this is what happend Turned onto road and failed to observe RR signals?

[bcnewsvideo]

the pick up truck never saw the train comming and there was no crossing bars at that crossing but after this they put one in

[robertgift]

Thank you both.

How does one not notice the signals and bells - one on each side of the track?

I oppose spending a fortune on RR crossing gates. They are unneeded.

In that wide open area, even the signals and bells are not necessary.

Darwin Award winner.

@anahi3110 soorry that was my sister she alway wrte things like that sorry thank for understantin

[anahi3110]

it be cool if someone died

[Polybun]

@veufcliquot I know exactly what happened here. Someone was being a careless twat and jumped a crossing without looking. Trains are not on tracks by fucking accident!

[Polybun]

@veufcliquot Tragic? Hardly. This is a fucking godsend. Someone careless enough to jump tracks and race trains is careless enough to do any number of other things that could kill someone else. He's dead, and we are all better off for it. They should drag what's left of his useless ass through town to be mocked.

@electricrailwaygod There is NOTHING tragic about this accident. One less moron on the planet. It's a good day for the wrest of us that this stupid, careless, asshole was en dangering. They should give that train engineer $100 for removing the thoughtless piece of shit from the planet.

[Polybun]

@robertgift Trains sure as hell aren't on tracks by accident!

[Polybun]

@bcnewsvideo stupid, crossing bars are a waste. It's better to not have them and let the trains rid the world of the stupid and impatient. They only save the lives of people that will end up crashing into a car and killing themselves and someone else.
